Emergency Housing Services

Important Service Update:

To better serve everyone, we’re making a temporary change (until October 1, 2025):

The Newmarket Drop By will be making some changes. Beginning Monday July 21, the Drop By will support men only at this location. Belinda’s Place located at 16580 Yonge Street offers a daily Drop By for women from 9am – 9 pm, where your safety, comfort, and needs come first.

1. Growing Need, Better Service

More people are using our services than ever before — and that’s a good thing. But it means we need to grow and adapt. By creating separate spaces, we can give everyone the support and attention they deserve.

2. A Space Designed for Women

Belinda’s Place’s Drop By is just for women — with staff, services, and a setting tailored to you. It’s a calmer, safer space built around your needs and experiences.

3. You’re Still a Priority

This change isn’t about taking anything away — it’s about doing better, and more safely for everyone. Once October 1^st rolls around, we will assess our numbers and decide if we can go back to serving both men and women from the location at 17,837 Yonge Street.

• We’re With You through this Transition

We’re here to help you with the change. We’ll share the new location, hours, and how to get there — and answer any questions. It’s easy to get to, and we’re happy to help you get there the first time.
