Common questions
Here are the most frequently asked questions we receive about the Adult Women program.
Can I access this program with my partner and family?
Unfortunately, the Adult Women Homelessness Program is only for women presenting to our services on their own. We can connect you with other services and supports who may be able to assist you based on your presenting needs.
Does this program provide long term housing?
The Adult Women’s Homelessness Program offers temporary accommodation to women. However, we will work with you to address barriers to housing and link you with relevant support services that can help you secure sustainable housing options.
