Over 40 resident families have been welcomed into our emergency residence during its first year. Men and children have found safety and have been supported as they healed from trauma, found new employment and opportunities, and finally moved out into permanent housing.

Event at York University hosted by the Men and Youth Wellness Peer Support Club at York University.
