Way Side House Of St Catharines (The)

MISSION STATEMENT
To provide a safe, clean (substance free) environment that offers people with substance abuse problems the opportunity to regain their health, confidence, and self respect.

To further their knowledge of the problems they are facing by associating with peers facing the same problems, supported by a staff knowledgeable in addictions so that in so doing they may return to society in an honest, admirable way, with renewed hopes and aspirations.

Wayside Niagara utilizes various community resources such as the Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centre, Niagara Alcohol and Drug Assessment Centre, and the John Howard Society. It is with the help of such organizations that Wayside enables its residents to examine their own lives.

We have on-site alcohol and drug testing to ensure an alcohol- and drug-free environment.
