Sistering is a multi-service organization based in Toronto, Ontario that provides practical and emotional support to women and trans people facing challenging life circumstances such as poverty, homelessness, social isolation, and trauma histories. Its programs include a 24/7 drop-in, housing and case support, harm reduction, peer outreach, employment pathways, a social enterprise called Spun Studio, and individual and systemic advocacy, all delivered through a trauma-informed, relationship-based approach. The organization aims to create safe, non-judgmental spaces guided by anti-oppression and anti-racism principles, with a focus on addressing the social conditions that affect welfare and movement toward more equitable opportunities. Sistering’s work targets individuals experiencing social isolation or precarious housing, emphasizing dignity, safety, and meaningful engagement as core outcomes. The organization operates within the civic and social sector in Toronto, with recent developments including the launch of Spun Studio, a textile program designed to support unhoused women and gender-diverse people in earning income through creative collaboration.
