The Parkdale Wellness Drop-In is a weekly community-led drop-in space for peer feminist counselling support and resources that will be hosted throughout September and October 2019. The space aims to fill the need for culturally relevant services that can overcome the stigma attached to mental health in diasporic and racialized communities to allow for community healing and learning. Each workshop will provide free food, tokens, and childminding support. Translation services can be provided upon request. Please note that the space aims to centre racialized women, trans, and nonbinary community members.

The Parkdale Wellness Drop-In will run from 1-4PM every Friday throughout September and October in PARC’s upstairs auditorium (1499 Queen St W).

Contact Mercedes Sharpe Zayas at mzayas@parc.on.ca or (416) 537-2262 x 269 to RSVP.

Special thanks to the Toronto Foundation for generous support for this project.
