Someone is hurt, a life is in danger, there is a fire, or a crime is happening. Police, fire and ambulance.
Call or text any hour if you are thinking of ending your life or cannot keep yourself safe. Free. A trained person answers.
Your city's help line. In Toronto it is open any hour and can find you an emergency shelter bed tonight and connect you to city services like Ontario Works (welfare). Peel, Halton and Durham have 311 too. York Region and Hamilton don't, so call 211 there.
Food, housing, welfare, legal help, mental health and more, anywhere in Ontario. Free, any hour, in many languages.
A short form, read by a real program lead, not a call centre. Tell us as much or as little as you're comfortable with; anything you'd rather explain by phone, say so and we'll call.
