​GREEN WOOD COALITION​
uses a radically inclusive, community model of caring to 
walk alongside people living with  poverty,  mental or
physical illness, drug dependency, or disability
in Northumberland County. 
By focusing on what's strong, not what's wrong, we work for
positive change that leaves no one behind.



​Green Wood Coalition is supported by ​our generous individual donors,
as well as Cameco Corporation and the Municipality of Port Hope.
​Registered Canadian Charity: 835935263RR0001










Our Response to COVID-19

3/14/2020

As we all adjust our lives to stay up to date with COVID-19, and advice from health experts, Green Wood Coalition has decided to change some of our community programming.  

Green Wood programs that will be cancelled until further notice:
  •  Monday Yoga Group
  • Wednesday Community Dinners
  • Thursday Art Hive 
Green Wood activity that will continue:
  • Individual in-person support 
  • Street outreach
Green Wood can help to connect you to:
  • Food bank and free meals when they are available
  • Hygiene and Harm Reduction supplies
  • Current and up to date information
​
“Green Wood is a community, and this is a time when
we need to look after one another. We feel
community gatherings are not wise at this time,
​but staying in touch is important.”

-Caleb Carisse, Green Wood Coalition Board Chair

​Finally, we will postpone IMAGINATE, our Evening of Possibility and one-day social awareness conference that would have taken place April 16 & 17. We look forward to rescheduling this event as soon as possible.   

These are difficult times. We look forward to continuing our normal programs as soon as it is safe to do so.

Further updates will be posted on our website,  and on our Facebook page, Green Wood Coalition. Feel free to contact our staff at [email protected] or 905-885-8700.

Overdose Vigil

[Cobourg News Blog]
On Sunday afternoon in front of Victoria Hall,  Greenwood Coalition held a “community-led vigil for loved ones lost to overdose”. They called it “They Were Here”.  Led by David Sheffield, a steady stream of people spoke of their experiences – there was a lot of emotion and passion. ​
