Orange Drop-In Center shifting to Orange Resource Center
Beginning Monday, November 1st, 2021, our drop-in center will be shifting to an appointment-based resource center to better meet the diverse needs of our young people.
Instead of fixed hours on Tuesday/Thursday, our Resource Space will be available throughout the week by scheduling an appointment. It is our hope we can be better available to young people through this method.
We will continue to provide all of the same services we provided during our open drop-in hours. Food Pantry, Hygiene Products, Clothing, Referrals, Intake and Case Management Services, and Coordinated Entry System Access, will all be available.
To access our resource center, please call 413-774-7054 x 7 to schedule an appointment.
