Calgary Dream Centre is a place for those who feel like they are beyond hope.
The Calgary Dream Centre moves people from a place of addiction, homelessness and despair to a place filled with hope, and then beyond hope to tangible change – A life full of freedom, purpose, security, dreaming and thriving.
Our approach is a full continuum of care throughout a lifetime. Through innovative recovery programs, housing solutions, and an ongoing supportive community alumni program, our clients build connections and a community to journey through their lives full of hope, freedom, and purpose.
Our recovery programs pair the most innovative recovery research with a supportive community focused on spiritual development, vocational training, and encouragement to guide our clients from addiction to freedom.
While our recovery program clients are housed at the Calgary Dream Centre, we also have affordable housing solutions throughout the city for men and women in Calgary who need the transformative power of a safe and stable home.
We support our clients throughout their lifetime through our alumni program and ongoing community engagement.
We amplify the voices of those in need by actively leading in the community and building partnerships with government and non-profits, driving meaningful, long-term change for Calgary’s most vulnerable.
