A homelessness and addiction recovery facility is coming together in Belleville.
The Bridge is one of three components of the HART Hub Hastings Prince Edward and will open on April 9 at 1 Alhambra Square after relocating from 125 Church St. South in the city.
Construction workers are in the final stages of making the space safe, doing the work right, and ensuring it’s a welcoming environment that supports guests in moving toward a healthier and more hopeful future.
This is a core piece of its plan to help members of the Quinte community facing homelessness, addiction and mental health challenges to heal and build a more stable life.
“We remain committed to being good neighbours and supporting a safe, welcoming environment for the entire community. The finishing work and opening timeline for 1 Alhambra Square helps The Bridge to be the most respectful neighbour we can be,” Canadian Mental Health Association HPE officials stated in a release.
Services will continue operating at Church St. South as staff make the transition to 1 Alhambra Square for early April.
All basic needs services – including access to a warm space, washrooms, laundry, and meals – will continue to be available throughout the transition.
HART Hub HPE outreach teams will also continue operating as usual during this period.
