Housing with Heart
At SHARP, housing is more than a roof over someone’s head—it’s the foundation for rebuilding lives.
We offer
- Emergency Housing: Immediate support for those in crisis.
- Transitional Programs: A stepping stone to independence and stability.
- Permanent Supportive Housing: Long-term housing with wraparound care for those with chronic health or social challenges.
We believe that harm reduction is about preserving dignity, respecting choices, and empowering individuals to make safer decisions.
Residents pay a percentage of their income to support the costs of rent, groceries and utilities.
Intake & Referral Process
Referrals to The SHARP Foundation’s housing programs are managed through SORCe. If you or someone you know is looking for housing support, please connect with them directly for intake and referral services.
SORCe (Safe Communities Opportunity & Resource Centre) is a multi-agency collaborative that connects people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, to programs and services that can help to address the barriers to stable housing.
Compassion without Judgment
Harm Reduction Program
We meet people where they are, providing nonjudgmental, practical tools to reduce harm and save lives. We believe harm reduction is about honoring dignity, respecting choices, and empowering individuals to make safer, more informed decisions.
Our services include:
Hope through Shared Experience
Peer-Led Recovery
Lived experience holds great power. Through our Peer Training and Support Program, we empower individuals with firsthand experience of substance use to step into roles as leaders and mentors within the community. This program not only cultivates a sense of purpose and belonging but also offers transformative support to those in need.
Peers provide:
Education and Outreach
Sharing knowledge about substance use risks, overdose prevention, and recovery pathways.
Support and Connection
Offering guidance and empathy to others on their journey to stability and recovery.
Community Building
Strengthening trust and belonging within marginalized groups.

Health is at the heart of everything we do. SHARP offers wraparound services to address physical, mental, and social health challenges. Our goal is to ensure every individual receives the care and support they need to move forward with dignity and confidence.
Case management and connection to medical care.
Mental health counseling and substance use recovery support.
Addressing social determinants of health, including food security and income stability.
Wear a story. Share hope.
More than a bracelet - a Symbol of Strength
Every bracelet is uniquely handcrafted using a variety of materials, colors, and styles—just like the SHARP residents who create them.
