Our Seasonal Emergency Housing Programs<\/h2>\n

Mosaic Interfaith Out of the Cold continues to provide seasonal overnight emergency housing in York Region 7 nights a week during the colder months (October to June) at our six host community sites. In addition, two of these locations are now open year-round to meet ongoing community needs. Each night, up to 95 adults, seniors, and youth are served a sit-down meal, provided with clean clothes, medical care, entertainment, overnight accommodation, and housing support.<\/p>\n

Comprehensive housing and wraparound supports are provided on-site to support individuals, assisting with case management, housing search, housing retention, advocacy with landlords and basic needs as well as support with applications, legal assistance, and employment supports.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\t \n <\/div>\n \n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t
