Our History
At the heart of the story of Woolwich Counselling Centre is the story of a community coming together in service of others.
A network of visionary supporters recognized the critical importance of mental wellness in growing a healthy community.
They came together to build, nurture, and grow our organization for the benefit of their families, friends, and larger neighbourhood—and continue to do so today.
From our humble beginnings initially providing evening public lectures on mental health, we now serve more than 1,000 adults, youth, and children annually.
Our former Board Member Betty Dyck researched our history and growth in our community. We are very grateful for her time and effort in documenting our roots.
