Canadian Mental Health Association Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge’s REACH for Recovery Centre in Urgent Need of New Space in Lindsay

Dec 15, 2020

The Canadian Mental Health Association Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge’s (C.M.H.A. H.K.P.R.’s) REACH for Recovery Centre is urgently seeking a new space in Lindsay.

REACH, which stands for recovery, empowerment, advocacy, community, and hope, is a community-based day program for individuals with a mental health concern. REACH promotes mental health recovery through educational programming that incorporates exercise, peer support, art, music, and much more.

64 Lindsay Street has been home to the REACH for Recovery Centre for the past seven years. This November, C.M.H.A. H.K.P.R. was notified that their lease with the 64 Lindsay Street location would be ending January 31, 2021.

Staff have been actively searching for a vacant space to house the REACH for Recovery Centre but unfortunately nothing has been secured as of yet.

“The REACH for Recovery team has been actively searching to secure a new space so that critical supports and programming can continue into the new year without any service disruption impacting client care.,” says Christine Crough, Manager of Peer Initiatives and Employment Supports.

If you are a landlord or know of a vacant commercial space in the downtown Lindsay area that would be appropriate to house the REACH for Recovery Centre, please contact Christine Crough at ccrough@cmhahkpr.ca.
