Food Program
Warm Meals
A light breakfast and nutritious lunch is provided to all participants and their children every day we are open. We also provide dinner on Mondays and Tuesdays. Meals provide varying options and we strive to accommodate any known dietary needs.
Food Connect
Provides 12 participants monthly access to essential food items at Jessie’s, supporting participants who are experiencing challenges accessing food. It also provides opportunities to learn about other community food programs through awareness and referrals.
“I’m a single mom and it’s really hard to do it on your own. Food prices have really gone up and at Jessie’s, they have a lot of food my daughter can eat too. Because it’s not just moms eating, it’s babies too.”
- Chantal, a Jessie’s participant and mother who, despite working full-time at Tim Horton’s, finds it difficult to make ends meet for her and her 14-month-old-daughter
