October service highlights
This October our drop-in service on Zoom was more active than ever, with a 23% increase in online calls over September. We provided support to 94 members of our community online, totalling over 24 hours of on-call service. If you find yourself waiting for a response when you call, and your request is urgent, please so we can prioritize your request.
For onsite service, our service delivery team was happy to assist 64 members of our community who connected with us through our 3rd floor service hub touch screen. If you’re in the OISE building and want to speak in person, or have an in-person appointment, find us on the 3rd floor by using the touch screen near the elevator. If your call isn’t answered the first time, press call again, and the next available service delivery specialist will answer.
