Super friendly staff. Accepting of anybody who may come through the door. If you're.looking for any sort of help after you get out of jail, this is the place to go!!
They will do absolutely everything they can to help you get back in your feet. If they aren't able to get the job done themselves they will continue to help by reaching out to other helpful programs and services to see that your needs are served to the best of their capabilities.
It's places like these that need better government funding, instead of being put on the backburner and ignored. One of the most helpful places that you can find, even though they don't get a budget that can accommodate all their needs and the needs of the community... They still manage to pull it off! Kudos to the staff and volunteers! Keep up the great work!

Navigating life's challenges can be daunting, but with institutions like the John Howard Society in Orillia, one finds solace in genuine support and understanding. My experience with them was nothing short of superb.

The heart of this establishment is its staff, especially the social workers who exude a mix of professionalism and empathy. I had the pleasure of working with a social worker who was not only exceptionally knowledgeable but also incredibly accommodating and friendly. Their approach was tailored, thoughtful, and always with my best interests at heart, making each interaction a beacon of hope and progress.

In today's world, where services often come with hefty fees, John Howard Society stands out with its modest charges, ensuring that top-tier assistance is accessible to all. Their commitment to the community's well-being is evident in every aspect of their operations.

For anyone in Orillia seeking guidance, support, or a friendly face to navigate life's complexities, I wholeheartedly recommend John Howard Society. They're not just an institution; they're a testament to the power of genuine care and community spirit.
