County Outreach Services
Support brought to you in Lambton-County.
To provide enhanced services, we established partnerships with community health centers in Forest, Petrolia, and Watford. This allowed us to offer additional hours of support. We understand that clients in rural areas face unique challenges, such as transportation limitations, isolation, confidentiality concerns, longer response times for law enforcement, affordable housing scarcity, and limited supportive resources.
Our County Outreach program offers a range of services, including individual supportive counselling, emotional support, domestic violence information, advocacy, risk assessment, safety planning, transitional and housing support, and children's counselling. These services are provided in person, virtually, and over the phone.
If you reside in the rural areas of Lambton County and are in need of support, our County Outreach program is here to help. Reach out to us to access our services and learn how we can assist you.
All our services are free and confidential.
