Holiday Closure 2021

Season’s Greetings

From all of us at The Today Centre, we wish you moments of peace amid the difficulties, and connections with family and friends even if they can’t be in person.

On December 24th, our office will close early at 2:00 PM. Our office will remain closed from December 25th until January 2nd for the holidays. The office will reopen on Monday January 3, 2022.

In our absence, we wanted to share local resources to reach out to for help during the holidays. Family violence is a crime – Call 911 if you or someone you know is in immediate danger.
