About Us Crocus provides safe and accepting drop-in centre for adults who have been diagnosed with a mental illness. Anyone accessing Crocus must first become a member of Crocus. Members are able to participate in various programs throughout the day, purchase a healthy meal or snacks from our canteen, and find casual work through our Transitional Employment program. LEARN MORE History In 1982, community members had a growing concern about the lack of transitional care for psychiatric patients. With better medication and treatments, psychiatric patients were often being discharged with little or no long-term support. The idea came from the hope of creating a safe, accepting place where people living with a mental illness could gather and share struggles and triumphs.
