REACH Centre Grey Bruce
The REACH Centre provides a holistic wrap around approach to individual learning. We are focused on skill acquisition to foster independence in whatever form that looks like for our participants. We offer a stimulating and fun program that is both educational and recreational. We provide a place where participants can experience true community and supportive friendships, while engaging in life-long learning to achieve their full potential.
The REACH Centre is a registered charitable organization and is currently housed at Georgian Shores United Church in Owen Sound. It is a wonderful location in the heart of downtown so destinations like the library, theatre, art gallery, coffee shops, and the YMCA are all within walking distance!
