RAISING THE ROOF CHEZ TOIT

Raising the Roof operates emergency shelters and supportive housing programs across the Greater Toronto Area, providing immediate refuge and longer-term stability for people experiencing homelessness. The organization runs multiple facilities in York and surrounding communities where residents receive safe accommodation, meals, and access to case management services. Staff help guests address barriers to housing by connecting them with employment programs, mental health support, and benefits assistance. Raising the Roof also works to prevent homelessness by offering rental assistance and eviction prevention to households at risk of losing their homes. The charity combines direct service delivery with advocacy, pushing for policy changes that address affordable housing shortages in the region.
