McEwan Housing & Support Services
McEwan Housing & Support Services is a supportive housing and community support program for women and men, aged 16 and older, living with HIV or AIDS, who have mental health or substance abuse challenges or both, and are homeless or at risk of becoming so. It is the only housing program in Ontario dedicated to serving this highly vulnerable population, and one of only a very few in the world.
McEwan Housing & Support Services now has satellite offices on the 3rd floor of 200 Gerrard St. E., above PWA’s offices.
