West Neighbourhood House (West NH) formerly St. Christopher House, has been a multi-service neighbourhood centre serving all age groups in downtown west Toronto since 1912. The mission of West NH is to enable less­ advantaged individuals, families and groups in the community to gain greater control over their lives and within their community.

While the core of our work is programs and services, West NH also works upstream on poverty reduction, housing, and the determinants of health through social policy, research with partners and community organizing to achieve our mission.

Scouting has an important role in the lives of today’s youth. Scouting promotes the importance of values such as integrity, honesty, responsibility, patriotism, courtesy, perseverance, cooperation, tolerance, teamwork, leadership and respect for community, nature and spirituality. In the 2008-2009 Scouting year, for the first time in a quarter of a century, membership in Scouting across Canada has increased. We are working hard so that more youth have the opportunity to benefit from a Scouting experience. As the organization grows, more and more youth in need of financial assistance are identified.

Programs include: the Suiting Program which outfits women in professional attire for job interviews and employment; the Dress Rehearsal program where clients go through a mock interview and feedback session and can get assistance with resume/cover letter writing; and the Professional Women’s Group (PWG) which offers women ongoing support as they successfully transition into the workforce.
