Intake

If you are seeking assistance, we can help you. You can come by our location in downtown Guelph and register as a new community member.

If you are a resident of Guelph looking to access Hope House services and programs we can complete an intake to register you as a Hope House Community Member. We will introduce you to our programs and can discuss other services in the community.
Please come at least an hour before we close to allow enough time for the intake process and your first shop in our food market. Bring along a piece of ID for yourself and each member of your household as well as reusable bags to carry your groceries.
Email Hope House with any questions.
