Homeless Connect Toronto

About the company

Since 2013, Homeless Connect Toronto coordinates “one-stop-shop” events for individuals at-risk-of and experiencing homelessness in Toronto. It is based upon a successful initiative, Project Homeless Connect, which started in San Francisco in 1998 and has since been implemented by 221 communities in North America. Our events bring together essential resources on housing, employment, ID clinics, health care, and other services under one roof for those at risk of or experiencing homelessness.
