We help women, gender diverse individuals, and their children in Waterloo Region living with homelessness, meeting them where they’re at – offering help without judgement.
Our family shelter provides relief and basic needs for families experiencing homelessness. We advocate for them, securing housing help and refer them to longer-term community supports.
Housing is more than a roof over your head. Our supportive housing programs offer a home for women and gender diverse individuals who have lived with chronic homelessness and face challenges to find and maintain housing.
In Waterloo Region demand for low-cost housing are high. We’re helping local women and gender diverse individuals access stability with housing where rents are set at 60% and 80% of market rate.
