Supportive Housing

Supportive Housing is an option for people who can no longer manage in their own home but are not ready to move into a Personal Care Home. In a Supportive Housing facility, people live in their own apartment within a group community setting. Meals are provided and people share a common kitchen and living area. Laundry and housekeeping services are available, as well as social and recreational activities. Some assistance with personal care is provided and 24-hour on-site support, care and supervision is available.

People interested in supportive housing are assessed for eligibility by the WRHA Coordinator. The cost of this housing option varies by site. Individuals pay the sponsor (landlord) directly for the rent and service package.
