We are located at 65 Brunswick Street which is behind the Victoria Health Centre Building. The kitchens are located in the same building as the Fredericton Homeless Shelter. Our door can be accessed by walking down the driveway between this building and the chain fence. You will see a sign indicating our entrance on the left.
