Durham Works Resource Centre

The Community Resource Centre (often associated with Ontario Works) is a vital service hub managed by the Regional Municipality of Durham’s Income, Employment and Homelessness Support Division. Located at the Midtown Mall in Oshawa, the centre provides a welcoming space for residents to access essential tools for job searching and social assistance, including free use of computers, printers, and telephones. Beyond physical resources, it offers various workshops focused on financial literacy, life skills, and wellness to support the professional and personal development of low-income individuals. By serving as a central point for service navigation and employment support, the centre helps empower members of the community to overcome barriers to stability and secure meaningful work.
