Brockville HART Hub officially open

The provincially funded program also connects clients with primary health care, employment assistance and other supports needed to rebuild their lives

People struggling with addiction and mental health challenges have a new place to turn to in Brockville, as of yesterday.

Operated by Lanark, Leeds & Grenville, Addictions and Mental Health (LLGAMH), the new HART Hub at 280 King St. East offers 34 beds, including withdrawal management, residential addiction treatment and transitional housing.

At last month's ribbon cutting, HART Hub client Bonnie, says she wouldn't be in a good place if it weren't for the Lanark HART Hub in Smiths Falls.

Bonnie is now celebrating nearly 11 months of sobriety.

LLGAMH CEO Kim Gifford addressed the concerns of residents in Brockville's east-end.

Here's local MPP Steve Clark, as well.

The provincially funded program also connects clients with primary health care, employment assistance and other supports needed to rebuild their lives.
