Are you a youth or young adult looking for more information on hub services? Please refer to our FAQs for youth.

General FAQs

We offer the following services: counselling, peer support (individual and group), care navigation, primary care and sexual health services, psychiatry, employment support, housing and settlement services, and drop-in social/recreational programs. Learn more about our programs here. We are also home to TNO Trades Connect (a trades training program), and the TNO Food Collaborative (a food bank).

Youth can drop in anytime during our opening hours! Some services (including counselling, peer support, psychiatry, care navigation, employment, housing and settlement), require meeting with an intake worker on the first visit, to match youth to the service they are seeking. The rest of our services (drop-in activities, tutoring, games room) are offered on a drop-in basis and don’t require a meeting with the intake worker.

Counselling FAQs

All of the counselling we provide is evidence-based and solution-focused. Our counsellors may use elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and other therapies in their practice. Some of the most common challenges we help youth with include depression, anxiety and stress, challenging relationships, disordered eating, and substance use.
