Out of the Cold Community Association

Out of the Cold Community Association OTC no longer operates the supportive housing at 5580 Cogswell St., Halifax or 7 Church St., Dartmouth. We are currently on hiatus while we explore next steps.

This page is currently unmoderated. Thank you for your patience and support OTC Community Association provides low barrier, people-centered support rooted in anti-oppressive & harm reduction practices. We support individuals (16+) and couples of all genders who are unhoused or precariously housed and who experience a variety of barriers to housing including poverty, criminalization, racism, homoph

obia, transphobia, food insecurity, inadequate access to physical & mental health supports, alcohol & substance use challenges and varying levels of ability and life skills. We believe strongly that shelters are a stop-gap measure to address the systemic issues that cause people to be unhoused and that every one of us has the right to safe, healthy and affordable housing. This work informs our vision of fostering a community where safe and accessible housing exists for all; and our mission of creating spaces that empower and support our underserved neighbours in accessing low-barrier housing and outreach services responsive to the unmet needs in our community. Please join us in discussions that relate to homelessness in Halifax. Feel free to post content, offer insights, and respond to posts.
