Our Housing
We work with low-income individuals and families who are living with HIV/AIDS and are homeless or inadequately housed. Our mission is to provide safe, secure and affordable housing and support services for individuals and families living with HIV/AIDS to increase the opportunity for improved health, wellness, independent living and sense of community.

We have partnerships with Seymour Place, The Affordable Housing Societies (20 bachelor units), Mole Hill Community Housing (10 bachelor units), and Nicholson Towers, The Bloom Group (20 bachelor units)
