Kudos! Eye opening research results! Have we learned so little from the pandemic about keeping seniors healthy and in their homes that this can’t be fixed?

High Intensity Support at Home helps 70% assigned seniors @MidWestTO_OHT avoid LTC. Rave reviews from caregivers:

Without this, she would be stuck inside."

"An amazing program -allowed me to keep mom at home."

As Vu Le (@NonprofitAF) asks, is our sector equipped to bend the arc toward justice, or have we collectively become the white moderate that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. calls the biggest barrier for equity and justice for Black people, and thus for us all? https://t.co/Zs1rCcawhs

@o_n_n @bettyferreira Can you help us anticipate what some of the potential new financial problems may be arising from the pandemic and recession? For example, organizations may face a lot of accumulated overtime and vacation that staff won't necessarily want to use to just stay at home.

Fantastic work by Parkdale Neigh Land Trust and Councillor Perks-- let's get more housing off the market.

[PNLT @parkdaleland]

The Land Trust has secured a 15 unit at-risk bachelorette building in Parkdale! We have removed this property from the private market to assure that the tenants are safe from above guideline rent increases and renovictions. Instead we will assure permanently affordable housing!
