The Drop-In Centre
The Squamish and Whistler Drop-In Centres are a single access point for crisis support, resources, and referrals for women and their children. With the rising cost of living and cuts to social programming, we are seeing the highest numbers of women in the community accessing our services since we opened over 40 years ago.
