All of our homes provide housing for persons having a diagnosis of some type of mental illness. They are all located in Parkdale in Toronto (around Dufferin Ave. and King St. W) or downtown Hamilton. All of the homes are close to TTC as well as many other areas of interest such as libraries, stores, restaurants, parks, churches, etc. All of the homes consist of single and double rooms, a kitchen, dining room, and common rooms with TVs.

All of our homes provide not only accommodation but also support services such as: 24 hour staffing, medication supervision/administration, daily housekeeping, 3 meals and a snack daily, washing of linens, free use of telephone for local calls, free use of laundry machines and/or assistance doing personal laundry, free laundry soap and other hygiene products, common areas with television and cable, and daily newspaper delivery. The number of bedrooms in each of the houses varies with all having some double rooms and some singles. All rooms have a bed, bedside table, chair, dresser and closet/wardrobe. The bathrooms are shared.

These four houses are privately owned homes and the owners have a contract with agencies including Habitat Services, Ontario Shores and the City of Hamilton. All of the homes are subject to regular scrutiny and inspection to ensure that all services are provided.

To be eligible for funding by one of the above agencies and to live in one of these homes, a person must be 18+, and have a mental health diagnosis.

Please read each home’s description for more information.

There is no time limit on how long someone reside here. Some residents have lived with us for a long time, while others have used them as a stepping stone as they transition between housing.
