This week is National Volunteer Week. We’re taking a special moment to recognize all the individuals that make up our tremendous team of volunteers who make our work and services possible.
This week is National Volunteer Week. We’re taking a special moment to recognize all the individuals that make up our tremendous team of volunteers who make our work and services possible.
Today on #IWD, we sat down with some of the amazing women of Dixon Hall and had an open discussion; sharing advice they have for younger generations and how they’re continuing to #BreaktheBias in their careers and spaces.
This week, we proudly recognize our Housing Services staff for Emergency Shelter and Homelessness Service Workers Appreciation Week. Their dedicated efforts make possible the provision of shelter, meals and wrap around supports to roughly 500 individuals every night, every year.
As organizations working closely with people experiencing poverty, housing precarity and homelessness, we would like to express our appreciation and support for efforts to strengthen intergovernmental collaboration to address housing affordability in Ontario, including through the provincial-municipal housing summit.
Housing is now a human right here in Canada. At Dixon Hall, it is our privilege to support people on their journeys towards housing, and we are thrilled to share we have housed 100 individuals within the first year of the pandemic.
