Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Call (215) 226-7860 and say whether you need help for yourself, a family member, or a youth. You can also use the contact form on odaatphilly.org..

What to expect

The Monday food giveaway runs noon to 2 pm at the Broad Street address and hands out fresh produce and groceries while supplies last. The site does not say whether any service costs money or how intake works for recovery, housing, or youth programs, so ask on the phone what happens next.

Tips for your first visit

  • Arrive early in the noon to 2 pm window, since the giveaway runs while supplies last.
  • Call (215) 226-7860 before you come to ask about intake, costs, and what to bring.
  • Ask which services are open to people who do not live in a recovery house, because the site ties some support to house residents.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The Monday giveaway and the Friday gathering have set times and addresses and are open to individuals, families, and community members, and each service lists a phone line, though the site does not say whether you must register..
