Outreach Services

  • At Ann Davis Transition Society, our Outreach Program provides compassionate, trauma-informed support to individuals and families facing violence, poverty, homelessness, housing instability, and other life challenges. We understand that many people are unable to access traditional services due to barriers such as transportation, isolation, financial hardship, disability, trauma, or fear of seeking help. That's why we bring support directly into the community through our Outreach Office and Mobile Outreach Van.

    Our outreach team meets people where they are physically, emotionally, and practically. Whether someone is experiencing a crisis, navigating a major life transition, or simply needs help accessing resources, we provide a welcoming connection point and personalized support.

  • Outreach services are designed to reduce barriers, address immediate needs, and connect people with the resources necessary to achieve greater safety and stability.

    Supports may include:

    • Crisis intervention and safety planning

    • Housing support and referrals

    • Food, clothing, and hygiene supplies

    • Advocacy and systems navigation

    • Referrals to healthcare, counselling, legal, and community services

    • Support for individuals experiencing homelessness or housing instability

    • Assistance for families rebuilding after violence or crisis

    • Support accessing essential community resources and programs

    • Emotional support and ongoing case coordination

  • We recognize that challenges rarely exist in isolation. Someone struggling to make ends meet may also be facing housing instability, mental health concerns, family violence, social isolation, or the impacts of trauma. Our outreach team takes a wraparound approach, working alongside clients to identify their unique needs and connect them with practical supports and long-term solutions.

    For some, this may mean accessing food and hygiene supplies during a difficult month. For others, it may involve finding housing, connecting with community resources, accessing counselling, or developing a safety plan to leave an abusive situation. Whatever the circumstance, our goal is to help people move toward greater safety, stability, and wellbeing.

  • Our Outreach Program serves a diverse range of community members, including:

    • Women and children experiencing violence

    • Individuals who are unhoused or precariously housed

    • Seniors facing isolation or financial hardship

    • Youth and families in crisis

    • Indigenous peoples and marginalized communities

    • Individuals experiencing poverty, trauma, or social isolation

    • People facing barriers to accessing traditional services

  • Every outreach connection is an opportunity to prevent a crisis and create a pathway toward stability. Through practical support, trusted relationships, and meaningful connections to resources, we help individuals and families:

    • Access safety and support

    • Meet basic needs

    • Maintain or secure housing

    • Navigate complex systems

    • Reduce barriers to services

    • Strengthen family stability

    • Build confidence, resilience, and independence

    At ADTS, we believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, and compassion. By meeting people where they are and responding to their unique circumstances, our Outreach Program helps create stronger individuals, healthier families, and a more connected community.

Stories of Hope

  • “I connected with outreach to leave my abusive relationship. I knew my and my children's safety was at risk. I was treated with exceptional care and was able to successfully find housing. I was given a bursary and gift cards to assist in the moving out costs. This helped me so much to make ends meet. Without this bursary I don't think I would have been able to move out of the home and leave my situation for good. Thankfully Ann Davis was there for me and my children."

  • "Since the day I walked through the doors here I have felt loved, valued, and important. I can come just say hi or come for some help with anything that I am working on to better my life and my son's life. I feel so blessed to have Ann Davis outreach to come to and I am so grateful to God that he has put this agency in my path."
