Organizational Supports: Our provincial services embrace an organizational focus collaborating with other organizations, local government and the community. Education Awareness Presentations and workshop opportunities for businesses, schools (K-12), and Post Secondary Schools are available throughout the year.

We have had over 210 appointments this year and over 990 telephone calls requesting information or referrals to other organizations. Many of these people become repeat users of our services and promote us to others in need. VAD has seen an increase in our service usage by social organizations, including:
E4C
City Police Help Team
Bissell Centre
Hope Mission
Catholic Social Services
The Mustard Seed
Boyle Street
YWCA/YMCA
As well as an increase in social workers, AISH workers and other government officials contacting us for client support.

VAD does not work directly with Children/Youth, Seniors and PDD recipients, however we can refer to supporting organizations.
