HOMES
Our HOMES program offers affordable, medium-term (1-3 yr) rental housing to refugees and other community members in need, in five church-owned houses in the Stirling neighbourhood.
We collaborate with community agencies and refugee sponsorship groups from local churches to offer support for HOMES residents.
Past organizational partners have included: The Working Centre, House of Friendship, Crow Shield Lodge, Mennonite Central Committee Ontario, Starling, and COMPASS Refugee Centre.
For more information on our active housing programs, please contact Mission, Peace and Justice Coordinator Laura Enns.
