Housing First: The Path to Recovery

For decades, the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) has been advocating for equitable access to affordable housing for Ontarians living with mental health and addictions issues. Since 2017, CMHAs across the province have recommended new investments for an additional 30,000 supportive housing units across the province over the next 10 years. As housing service providers with deep connections to our local communities, CMHA branches see this as a minimum requirement for Ontario.
