Your first visit

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

First step: Walk in to the drop-in center on a weekday between 9:30 am and 4 pm, or email the drop-in coordinator, Amira Cason, at acason@ppponline.org to ask about current services and any ID or sign-up needs..

You can just show up.

What to expect

The drop-in center is open Monday to Friday, 9:30 am to 4 pm, and the group says it aims to be free of judgment. Services include case management, mail, coffee, clothing and hygiene items, and drug and alcohol referrals. Ask the coordinator ahead of time whether you need any ID or sign-up before your first visit.

Tips for your first visit

  • Come on a weekday between 9:30 am and 4 pm, since the drop-in center is open Monday to Friday.
  • Take the Market-Frankford Line to the Somerset stop, as the contact page suggests, and use the entrance on Monmouth Street.
