  2. We will continue to provide intake and respond to new inquiries.  Intake appointments and assessments will be conducted over the telephone and online.

For questions regarding programming, you can contact:

  • Regent Park Catering Collective: Allison Gibson, allison@tccld.org

Hopefully, everyone will weather this health emergency and stay well.  Please take care of yourself and your loved ones.
