The Community Outreach Centre will relocate to 15 Park Street and the current centre on Euston Street will close.
This will be a temporary location for one year to allow the necessary time to build a model of care that uses a Housing First approach and strikes a balanced approach that considers the needs of vulnerable islanders and the community.
The Province will work with the operators of the centre, the Senior Advisor for Complex/Vulnerable Islanders, community partners, clients, and neighbours to make a successful transition to the Park Street location.
A security presence will be maintained at the Euston Street property after it relocates and the Province will review ways to repurpose the property in consultation with the surrounding communities.
As part of the Province's long-term plans to support Islanders with complex needs, the Senior Advisor has provided her recommendations. Read the report. [PDF]
