Morning Star supports vulnerable women in Red Deer and the surrounding communities by working to address their most critical and immediate needs.

What we provide:

  • A safe, welcoming, and centrally-located drop-in centre, just for women
  • Free shower and laundry facilities
  • Access to outreach and support services
  • Help accessing health services
  • Snacks, coffee, personal care, and hygiene products
  • Referrals to doctors, lawyers, counsellors, and housing and financial supports

The program supports women to address self-identified barriers in their lives. This can include attending appointments, assisting with applications and paperwork, locating mental and physical health professionals, finding additional supports, and helping navigate other resources and systems.
