What we do
The Salvation Army Ottawa Booth Centre serves a broad range of life-changing supports to individuals experiencing homelessness through a continuum of care with a goal of helping those we serve find stable housing.
An emergency shelter, a special medical care unit, in partnership with Ottawa Inner City Health, critical life skills programming, counselling, budgeting, emergency food and clothing are some of the essential supports The Salvation Army Ottawa Booth Centre provides to help the most vulnerable get back on their feet and reach their full potential.
To give hope to those living rough on the streets, The Salvation Army Ottawa Booth Centre’s Street Outreach Team provides year-round vital supplies and transportation to emergency shelters, housing, and hospitals.
As we look ahead to our shared future, we invite the business community in the city of Ottawa to join us as mission partners and help transform lives in our community. To learn more, please connect with Marc Provost, Executive Director at 613-241-1573 ext. 241.
