A community of drop-ins and allied members throughout Toronto

 

TDIN Committees

The Toronto Drop-In Network (TDIN) is a membership organization that relies on active relationships with our members to inform, guide, support and evaluate our work. Because of this commitment to engaging with our members, we have several committees that meet regularly.
Committees are made up of drop-in participants, peer workers, frontline staff, managers, and senior leadership from any of our member organizations.

  • Steering Committee: Guides TDIN's important work to ensure that our work is effective and meets the needs of our members. Meets usually once a month.
  • Advocacy Committee: Advises on advocacy directions and actions for TDIN to participate in on behalf of the network. Develops tools and other supports for our members, and especially drop-in participants, to be involved in advocacy campaigns and activities. Meets monthly.
  • Training Committee: Advises on sector training and resource tools needs, as well as core TDIN courses. Meets quarterly.

Co-Facilitator & Guest Speaker at TDIN Trainings
TDIN is always looking to involve participants to either co-facilitate or guest speak at some of the upcoming TDIN trainings. We are hoping to find people who have lived experience with either homelessness, drop-in engagement, and or crystal meth use.
What would make a participant/member a good candidate? Comfort sharing, able to commit to one hour (guest speaker) or 7 hours (co-facilitator), dependable, familiarity with computer and zoom.
TDIN will provide help to prepare and debrief, cash honorarium and computer access.

 
 
The Toronto Drop-In Network (TDIN) is an active member-based coalition of over 50 organizations that run at least 56 diverse drop-in centres across the city of Toronto. Our members work with people who are homeless, marginally housed, or socially isolated, including men, women, transgender and non-binary people, youth and seniors.
 
Toronto Drop-In Network acknowledges our lives and work takes place on the land of the ancestral Haudenosaunee and most recently the Mississauga of the New Credit. We give thanks for the privilege on living and working on this land, and stand with First Nations as the keepers of it. We also acknowledge the effects of colonialization and systemic oppression which has grievously impacted First Nations people, particularly in the context of our work.
