About
Our Place Community of Hope provides a safe and inclusive space for adults experiencing mental health issues to become part of a community, while making connections to additional services and supports.
​
Founded in 1969, Our Place provides a front line response to the changing needs of people living in the community with mental illness.
​
In the late 1970’s and early 80’s there was a period of de-institutionalization – with the closing of psychiatric hospitals in favour of community based care.
​
Many years later, there remains a gap in community services available to support the needs of people living with mental illness.
Our Place strives to fill that gap by providing a safe, stable environment for its membership to meet, connect and build relationships.
​
Our Place Community of Hope assists people in recovery in building skills for independent living in a community which seeks to include all people through by empowering them toward personal and communal responsibility.
​
Our Place is located within the Galilee Korean Presbyterian Church at 1183 Davenport Road, corner of Oakwood between Ossington and Dovercourt, easily accessed by the Ossington 63 North bus.
​
Our Place is a program of St. Michael's Homes and a Member Agency of Catholic Charities, supported by ShareLife, and is grateful for the ongoing support in providing services to people living with mental illness.
