WCSS provides free confidential outreach support for youth and adults. Contact us if you are experiencing challenges with hunger, housing, drug and alcohol misuse, employment, eating disorders, relationship violence, roommate conflict, mental health or homesickness.

The Outreach Workers are trained to make referrals to multiple resources within the community.
