HOMELESS HEALTH PROGRAM
The Homeless Health Program is a Nurse Practitioner-led initiative that provides essential healthcare services to individuals who are homeless, precariously housed, or transitioning out of homelessness in the Peel Region. We understand the unique challenges faced by those without stable housing, and our goal is to make healthcare accessible, integrated, and responsive.

Our medical services include:
Care for chronic conditions like diabetes
Medication management
Support for substance withdrawal and pain management
