Wild Earth Refuge

Wild Earth Refuge provides emergency and transitional housing for people experiencing homelessness in Oshawa and the surrounding Durham Region. The organization operates multiple residential facilities where residents receive safe accommodation alongside case management, employment support, and mental health services. Staff work with individuals to develop housing plans and connect them to permanent housing options while addressing barriers like income instability and health issues. The refuge accepts people regardless of background and maintains a low-barrier approach that prioritizes dignity and practical support over restrictive rules.
