Housing Help Services
What we do:
West Toronto Housing Help workers can:
- Help you in your search for market rent housing in the west end
- Provide you with rental listings within your budget
- Help you prevent possible eviction
- Help you access supports to maintain your housing
- Help you complete subsidized housing applications
- Provide information & referrals to other City services
But we are not landlords or housing providers and we cannot pay your rent.
