The Toronto Drop-In Network (TDIN) is an active coalition of 45+ drop-in centres working with people who are homeless, marginally housed or socially
isolated in Toronto. Our Network includes drop-ins of all sizes and diverse philosophies serving men, women, youth, seniors and families. Member agencies
