Managing unsupported tenancies can be a constant struggle for housing providers. Without the right resources, tenants can face isolation, instability, and frequent crises, leading to costly and stressful interventions.
Join us as housing providers from different regions of Ontario reveal how they’ve built strategic partnerships to bridge the gap between housing and health. Learn how to access and coordinate existing resources from hospitals, Ontario Health Teams, community partners, and publicly-funded agencies to provide support for your tenants.
In this session, you’ll discover:
- Community building: Reduce tenant isolation and foster stronger community connections.
- Housing as a social determinant of health: Minimize evictions and enhance long-term housing security.
- Cost savings: Decrease the frequency of expensive and stressful interventions.
- Healthcare efficiency: Reduce the need for paramedic visits, emergency trips, and hospitalizations through partnerships.
Equip yourself with the tools to turn challenges into opportunities for a more holistic approach to tenant well-being.
