The Alternate Neighbourhood Crisis Response (ANCHOR) program is expanding to Byward Market, Lowertown, Sandy Hill, Lees Towers, Vanier, and Overbrook by the end of June.

ANCHOR assesses the client and offers services that are safe and tailored to individual needs. ANCHOR also provides well-being checks, referrals, connections to other services, resources and information.
