Fire Doors

If you have come by our office recently, you may have noticed that there are a new set of closed doors to get through before you can get to our office. Unfortunately, we now have to keep those doors closed due to fire regulations, but we just wanted to let everyone know that SACOMSS walk-in services are still running, even though those doors are closed.

Due to the varying hours of availability of our volunteers, the hours of operation for the helpline and walk in service are subject to change each week. In order to help you contact us successfully, we are now posting our detailed schedule of hours each week.

Please note that these hours are also subject to change, but we hope that this schedule will help you to contact us more easily. To access our new schedule, please click on the "Help-Line" link above, or click here.
