about

Every night, at least 9,000 Torontonians sleep on the streets, in an emergency shelter or in temporary accommodations. Thousands more live in precarious situations, at risk for homelessness. That is just not right!

In Toronto, six Salvation Army shelters—Maxwell Meighen Centre, New Hope Leslieville, The Gateway, Florence Booth House, Islington Seniors' Shelter and Evangeline Residence—offer an open door, welcome and support to people in crisis. Integrated as Toronto Housing and Homeless Supports in 2013, these shelters meet basic needs for food, shelter and clothing, as well as provide pastoral care, addictions counselling and housing help. We also continue the operation of 2 additional hotel shelter programs which began in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Toronto Housing and Homeless Supports also manages social enterprises and other services that help shelter residents transition into their own housing.

If you would like to donate to a specific shelter location, please choose their corresponding campaign, or specify in the drop-down funds menu.

What people are saying

“We are moving from services that are grounded in an emergency response to an integrated approach to housing stability. We want to help people find—and keep—permanent housing.”

Bradley Harris, Executive Director (2013-2020)

Our Impact

overview

Our unified vision is summed up under the acronym H.O.M.E.

Housing

We do all that we can to find appropriate, affordable housing for the people we encounter each day. The biggest issue is that there is simply not enough housing. Waiting lists in Toronto are often 10 years long. This makes our task very difficult. However, we find housing for 300-400 of our shelter residents each year. It’s important to note that ‘housing’ is only a piece of our bigger desire to help people find a “home”.

Outcomes

Our two main outcomes are 1. getting people housed and 2. keeping people housed. This involves many levels of needed expertise around addictions, mental health, trauma counselling, spiritual care, and services and programs in general.

Mission

We are prioritizing our need to keep the focus of all that we do on our mission.

Excellence

We want to lead the way in creative, innovative approaches to this immense problem of homelessness in a way that demonstrates our desire to do the work as well as possible.
