Housing with Supports
Housing with Supports offers housing and help with daily living for people who need support in a home setting. Some local programs were previously known as domiciliary hostels.
Homes may provide accommodation, meals, supervision and other daily supports. For many residents, this is a long-term home.
Finding the right home
Ask the local program administrator or housing provider about the supports offered, accessibility, eligibility and referral process. The home and the support available need to match the person’s needs.
Costs and financial assistance
Funding arrangements, resident contributions and allowances depend on the local program. Confirm current amounts and what is included directly with the program administrator before making financial or placement decisions.
