Outreach Program

R.O.C.K. goes out into the community multiple times per week – including Chatham, Wallaceburg, Blenheim and Ridgetown – to connect with those experiencing homelessness or insecure housing.

We currently serve up to 500 unique individuals each week.

We bring

Lunches

Harm Reduction

Hygiene

First Aid

Commitment

Our purpose is to engage with these individuals, build relationships, and walk with them in their individual journeys.
Our organization is based on a person-centred approach, appreciating that each individual has a unique set of circumstances and needs, and we will meet every one where they are at.
We try to act as a bridge, connecting them with the services in our community.
We have partnered with many organizations to try and accomplish this, such as:

Chatham-Kent Employment and Social Services

Canadian Mental Health Association

United Way of Chatham-Kent

Chatham-Kent Community Health Centres

Salvation Army

Chatham-Kent Women’s Centre

Chatham-Kent Victim’s Services

Family Service Kent

Chatham-Kent Public Health
