Residents in Port Alberni, British Columbia, can now access new hygiene services including showers and laundry machines. The Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council Health Department is providing these facilities to support community members who are experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity.

The new facilities are located at 4841 Redford Street. The entrance is accessible for residents off 5th Avenue.

These services are available three days a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The doors are open from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM.

By offering access to basic sanitary services, the council is addressing a lack of infrastructure in the Alberni Valley. This resource provides improved health support and dignity to local residents in need.
