You Belong Here

At Elevate NWO, our services are by and for the communities we serve. Whether you’re living with HIV or Hepatitis C, navigating substance use, without housing, or simply looking for connection and care, you are welcome here.

We are Northwestern Ontario’s harm reduction and access-to-care hub, focused on compassion, dignity, and real-world solutions. If you need a meal, help with housing, access to testing, harm reduction supplies – or just a place to rest, you’ve found the right place.
