Supportive housing is Houselink’s core business. Stable funding from the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long Term Care covers most of our housing along with admin and front line support staff.   Houselink’s individualized supports enable members to keep their homes, even through episodes of serious illness. Members report that since they moved into Houselink, hospitalizations are fewer, and shorter. Many members have re-united with their children, returned to school, and obtained jobs.

Houselink also receives some funding from the City of Toronto Homelessness Initiative Fund for our social recreation and food programs.  For several years we have benefited from a grant from Services Canada to support an Employment Support co-ordinator. 

Privately raised charitable donations supplement or in some cases fully fund many of the other programs Houselink offers, programs that speak to the quality of life of our members
