Let’s Build
Hope
Coming from the most war-torn, poverty stricken countries around the world children, women and men will seek refuge at Sojourn House. Our shelter and transitional housing programs assist them with their integration into Canadian society. By offering shelter, safety and other essential services, Sojourn House is the helping hand and the umbrella of hope for refugees while they begin to rebuild a life in Toronto.
What We Do
Since 1987, Sojourn House has served thousands of individuals from around the world who have come to Canada in search of a safe and secure future.
Emergency Shelter
The Shelter Program provides short-term emergency shelter and 3 meals daily to refugees.
Transitional Housing
A subsidized supportive program that assists refugees who have had difficulties with their transition and require longer-term support.
Satellite Program
The satellite shelter provides Sojourn House with an additional space to accommodate up to 20 beds for single men. The Shelter Program provides short-term emergency shelter, 3 daily meals plus an evening snack to refugees.
Outreach
The Outreach Program provides outreach services to Sojourn House residents moving to the community for one year after leaving Sojourn House.
Housing Stabilization
The Newcomer Housing Help program assists newly arrived refugees to access and maintain housing in their new community.
Health Clinic
The in house clinic allows refugees to have easier access to healthcare soon upon arrival, thereby preventing illnesses that may consequently impair settlement or lead to health risks and complications.
Food Service
The food service program at Sojourn House focuses on providing daily nutritious meals to all residents living in the shelter and in the satellite program.
