The Frosty Festival has been a fixture in the City of Mount Pearl for over 3 decades. It began in 1983 as a volunteer-driven initiative that was organized by a group of community organizations. Now, as it enters its 36th year, the Frosty Festival has grown into the largest winter event of its kind in Atlantic Canada. The Frosty Festival offers a quality package of diverse entertainment that caters to all sectors of the population to encourage both indoor and outdoor activity during the winter. The Festival prides itself on keeping admission costs low to encourage maximum participation within the community.

We provide services to adults who face many barriers to fully participating in their community.  These barriers include mental health challenges, addictions, trauma, poverty, homelessness, criminal justice involvement, low literacy, and long periods of unemployment.
