We know you care about your community – that’s why you are here!
Welcome! We hope the resources we’ve gathered and share here will assist you on your journey to learn more about social issues our community is grappling with, issues that are affecting individuals and families all across our region. These are issues that our mission at House of Friendship has been, and will continue to be, dedicated to responding to in ways that bring change, with dignity and hope. Thank you for caring and taking the time to grapple with the difficult challenges of poverty, hunger, addiction, and homelessness right here in Waterloo Region, and across our nation.
Addiction may be more complex than you realize. It is not a weakness, it is a disease.
Hunger is a bigger problem than you might realize, with 1 in 10 families receiving food in Waterloo Region.
