The Housing Help Centre

Legal name: THE HOUSING HELP CENTRE

The Housing Help Centre provides legal advice and advocacy to people facing housing insecurity in Scarborough and the broader GTA. The organization helps tenants navigate tenant rights, respond to eviction notices, negotiate with landlords, and access emergency housing assistance. Their staff and volunteers work directly with low-income residents to prevent homelessness through intervention at critical moments, offering representation in landlord-tenant disputes and connecting people to available housing resources. The centre also educates the community about housing rights and responsibilities, ensuring that vulnerable populations understand their legal protections under Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act.
