Program Overview – First Steps to Home, Supportive Housing – Community Care Unit
Our Supportive Housing portfolio includes multiple programs across approximately ten buildings in the City of Toronto, supporting individuals with lived experience of homelessness and complex mental health and/or substance use challenges. Different programs offer varying levels of onsite support, including intensive case management, harm reduction and addiction support, therapeutic counselling, 24-hour or on-call staffing, health and nursing supports, life-skills development, and community-building activities.
Our work is rooted in equity, anti-oppression, harm reduction, and trauma-informed, recovery-oriented practice, with a strong focus on housing stability, dignity, and client self-determination.
The Case Manager reports to the Supervisor, Living Standards Response Team and works in collaboration with the Team to minimize and eliminate pest infestations and hoarding behaviours by working alongside tenants to provide case management and practical assistance to tenants to enhance their quality of life and housing stability. This includes working alongside the Team to perform extreme cleaning, declutter and removal of debris, organize living spaces, and to prepare units for pest control treatments. These interventions are designed to increase safety and support healthier environments, to help tenants reduce their risk of eviction and improve their overall health and wellbeing. The role upholds best practices in trauma-informed care, supports organizational goals, and advances resident well-being, safety, and tenancy stabilization across multiple housing environments. The role is mobile and will work across different locations in owned, leased and private properties.
The philosophy of this work is in keeping with WoodGreen’s mission to deliver services that promote wellness and self-sufficiency, reduce poverty and inequality, and build sustainable communities.
