John Gibson House Supportive Housing Program
The John Gibson House Supportive Housing Program (J.G.H.) in the west end of Toronto helps some of the most vulnerable, at-risk and frail older adults in the community. Through a multi-service approach, the program offers 24-hour on-site access to services for seniors who have traditionally been under-served. JGH assists them with health and medical concerns, mental illness, and substance abuse problems and other related issues. The communal dining program at JGH provides affordable and nutritious meals to its residents, and to seniors in the broader community. The use of Personal Support Workers has provided practical assistance and care to residents, enabling them to remain in their homes.
John Gibson House provides supportive housing services for fifty seniors at its Crawford Street site, as well as for seniors living at LOFT's apartment buildings in downtown Toronto.
The success of the John Gibson House Program is based on a collaboration between its service users, staff members, and the community. It has, for over 75 years, continued to be committed to serving the needs of those most in need in our community.
