Many of our clients were previously living with family and wanted to be more independent – to have a place of their own. Some of our clients are referrals after discharge from hospitals or institutions. We also receive referrals from various community organizations.
Most clients choose to have roommates in order to keep costs down. That is your choice. Typically each house has roommates all the same gender. If you already have roommates you'd like to live with, that can be arranged as well.
There are houses, apartments, and licensed group homes available.
The menu is planned to adhere to the Canada Food Guide as closely as possible. Meals are basic in nature. Previous weekly menus are available to view. Our kitchen meets all guidelines and is inspected by the Durham Region Health Department regularly. Special diets can usually be accommodated. A nominal fee would apply.
Transportation to doctor appointments and for other critical reasons is available, but must be planned in advance. Transportation is provided by a licensed school bus driver. Please see rate sheet for cost of service.
Other services may be offered if needed. These will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
