22 Days of Hope: Day 3

Contributions made to the Fall Sign of Hope appeal grant our Agency the ability to continue providing assistance to those who require supportive housing in a safe environment. St. Katharine Drexel Place is one of those ministries.

Opened in 2003 as Jasper Place Complex, this ministry is offered under our Children, Family, and Community Service, providing supportive housing for single women and women with children in the Edmonton area, who are met with financial difficulties and require extra assistance.

Through this ministry, women in our care have access to housing in a drug- and alcohol-free environment, with additional resources and support provided from on-site staff. St. Katharine Drexel Place strives toward helping women transition back into their own independence, by helping them pursue career and educational goals, focus on family stabilization and unification, and search for permanent residence in the community.
