We're here for you
Whatever your background, however you find yourself here today, we’re here for you. It’s not about solving problems with ready- made solutions, it’s about discovering how we can help you help yourself.
After spending nearly 40 years working in your local community, we’ve come to understand a simple truth – every story is different, every story matters.
WHAT’S YOUR STORY?
If you are reading this, you have probably reached a turning point in your life. Maybe you’ve had a relationship breakdown. Maybe you’re struggling with addiction or dependency on alcohol or other drugs. Domestic violence, sexual abuse, money problems, mental health? It could be you’re at risk of being evicted and need a place to stay. Maybe you’re about to be released from prison. Maybe you just feel lost and detached from your community.
Once we know your story better, we can help you with your mindset or circumstances. Our job is to help you believe “you make things happen”. When you see yourself as being in control of your own future, you’ll be less prone to stress related illnesses and depression, more positive, independent and expect to be successful in most things you do. This sets off a chain of positivity in your life, where you’re more likely to stay on top of your health and happiness and proactively build relationships and connections.

Celebrating 40 Years Side By Side
For 40 years, Accordwest has been a beacon for hope and support in the Southwest, steadfast in our belief that every story matters, no matter how big, how small, or who is telling the story. As we look back on our journey, we are proudly celebrating 40 years of walking “Side by Side” with the Southwest community. “Side By Side” if you have been sleeping rough. “Side By Side” when you are doing it tough. “Side By Side” when relationships fall apart. “Side By Side” when you need a fresh start.
