Homes First Society, based in Toronto, Ontario, is a mid-sized nonprofit that stands as the city’s largest provider of homelessness and housing services. It operates a housing-first, client-centered model that emphasizes wrap-around supports within both shelters and housing to help people stabilize and pursue individual goals. The organization runs 25 properties, including nine shelters and 15 supportive housing sites, and serves more than 2,300 people each night, with a focus on individuals facing multiple, interconnected barriers to housing. The group collaborates with residents and local partners to ensure services respond to community needs. In 2023, Homes First partnered with The Works to operate a supervised consumption site at its Lake Shore Boulevard location, expanding on-site support for its community.
