Street Outreach Navigator Program
The Downtown Dartmouth Street Outreach Navigator Program (DDSON) offers support to unhoused and street-involved folks within the Downtown Dartmouth district. The program is funded through the support of the Halifax Regional Municipality.
The DDSON works to connect folks to the resources they need and removing obstacles when possible. Finding affordable and suitable housing has been a main challenge for the DDSON in recent years.
​
The DDSON assists folks in a number of ways. This includes support in finding employment, accessing medication, obtaining identification, providing referrals to appropriate community programs, and more.
​
The DDSON Program is currently accepting donations of the following:
-
New/lightly used clothing
-
Gift cards (ex: gas cards, grocery stores, Tim Horton's McDonalds etc)
Please note that your donation may be turned away if it is deemed unsuitable for the DDSON Program. To coordinate a donation, please email bela@downtowndartmouth.ca​
