Expanding our space.

Deepening our commitment.

Creating second stage housing for women.

City Dream Centre is growing. Now settled into our new home, we're taking an important step forward in the support we provide to our community.

For many years, we have dreamed of creating a residential program for women who need more than short-term support. That dream is now becoming reality.

Introducing Connections - Women’s Residence With Life Skills

We're excited to launch the Connections Program, City Dream Centre’s residential program with life skills education.

The Connections Program is designed to support women as they transition into stability, healing, and long-term independence. This one-year residential program will serve women who are ready for the next step in rebuilding their lives, including women who have completed a recovery program and women leaving traumatic circumstances such as domestic violence or incarceration.

Our heart is to provide a safe, stable and supportive environment where women can heal, grow and move toward lasting independence.

Year-round Initiatives

This program is being built to provide more than housing alone. It is intended to create a strong foundation for lasting change through education, a healthy mind and spirit, job training, and new skills.

A supportive residential environment where women can begin to rebuild with hope and dignity.
Each resident will follow a plan shaped around her unique needs, goals, and circumstances.
Practical guidance in areas that strengthen confidence, wellbeing, and long-term stability.
Support designed to help women successfully transition into independent housing, job security and greater self-sufficiency.

Why This Matters

Many women face a difficult gap between leaving crisis situations and stepping into stable, independent living. Emergency support can be vital, but it is often not enough on its own.

Housing, combined with education, helps bridge that gap. It creates space for healing, growth, and practical preparation in the context of safety, consistency, and support.

This new program reflects City Dream Centre’s ongoing commitment to meeting people where they are and walking with them toward hope, dignity, and lasting change.

A Growing Vision

Our move to 15030 66A Ave has given City Dream Centre room to grow, and the Connections Program is one of the most important things we're building in our new home.

We want every woman who walks through our doors to know she is worthy and valued. A safe, beautiful and welcoming space is an important first step toward a healthy and stable future.

Sponsor a Woman

It costs $1,000 a month, or $12,000 a year, to support one woman through the Connections Program. Your sponsorship helps provide a safe home, life skills education and the ongoing support she needs during her year with us.
