Evangel Hall’s new medical and dental clinic is “divine intervention,” according to Greg, one of the first people to use the new free service. The new and unique mission was officially launched in late April though doors had been open for a few months.
The clinic includes two dental offices, a dental x-ray machine and a physician’s office. Two dentists and a general practitioner volunteer their services to the Evangel Hall facility; along with students from the Toronto School of Dental Hygiene. Services are extended even to those who do not have an Ontario Health Insurance card. Greg received several hours of care—having his teeth cleaned and x-rayed.
For over 90 years, Evangel Hall Mission has served marginalized people in downtown Toronto. It serves over 200 people everyday providing shelter, meals, clothing, life skills, guidance and now medical care.
