Casey House is pleased to celebrate four years of outpatient supervised consumptions services (SCS).

Despite this milestone, we continue to be devastated about the closures of other Ontario SCSs and its consequences for our friends, neighbours, and community. As one of Toronto’s few remaining providers of supervised consumption services, and the only one offering space for smoking illicit substances, we continue to believe and trust in harm reduction to save lives and minimize the negative impacts of drug use. We believe in caring for people without requiring they stop using drugs in order to receive support.

We strive to dismantle the de-humanizing narratives about substance use, particularly with those who are street-involved. And, remain concerned about the erosion of rights, services, and safety for this community.

“We all need somebody. You can have all different staff roles, but you really need people with lived experience to truly understand what clients are going through. You have to be at [the client’s] level. […] I think the community needs to know that there’s a lot of big hearts in here. [At the SCS] we don’t just provide needles and equipment, there’s a lot more behind it. There’s a lot of care here.” – Tom, harm reduction peer at Casey House.

Today we honour and celebrate all transgender people during Trans Day of Visibility 🏳️‍⚧️ . We are lucky to be in the company of so many amazing trans folks who inspire us and make our community so much brighter. Together, we are building towards a future where all trans people will be able to express themselves freely without prejudice. For us, that begins with continually adapting our client health journeys to be safer and more comfortable for trans people. From Casey House, we wish you all a happy , and we will continue to advocate for trans health and joy 💙 🩷 🤍 🩷💙

We are pleased to announce that Casey House’s inpatient unit officially resumes operations April 6 following repairs caused by a small fire at the end of December. As we begin to welcome back some admitted clients who were displaced at that time and reaching out to those who were on the pre-existing waitlist.

With that, we are now accepting new referrals to our inpatient waitlist using the Ocean form found at CaseyHouse.ca. Please note, accepted referrals will be added to our waitlist which is sorted by clinical acuity and prioritizes end-of-life care - admissions may not be arranged based on the order of referral submission.

Visit Caseyhouse.ca or find us on the Ocean network to refer.

Casey House is deeply saddened to hear that the AIDS Committee of Toronto ( ) will be closing operations March 26, 2026. After 42 years of dedicated support for people living with HIV/AIDS, ACT will remain a testament to what grassroots community care can be. As groundbreaking pioneers during the 1980s AIDS epidemic, their work will not be forgotten. They provided hope during a dark time of Toronto’s history.

Years before Casey House opened in 1988, the first meetings were at ACT. In fact, the hospice steering committee, which became the organizing group that established Casey House was born with ACT's approval in September, 1985.

HIV is still present. ACT’s absence will leave a crater in our hearts and community, as AIDS service organizations across the city respond to evolving needs for people living with and at risk of HIV. Nevertheless, we hope to continue the mission to serve with inspiration from ACT’s zeal and resolve.

With boundless gratitude, Casey House thanks the AIDS Committee of Toronto and its entire team of staff and volunteers for 42 incredible years

Our statement regarding the Consumption & Treatment Services (CTS) and Supervised Consumption Sites (SCS) closures across Ontario:

At Casey House, we are concerned about the erosion of rights, services, and safety for people who are unhoused, use substances, and in need of mental health support.

We strive to dismantle the de-humanizing narratives about substance use, particularly with those who are street-involved. In our experience, public drug use is a symptom of people’s desperate need for shelter and mental health care. It’s also extremely unsafe due to the toxic drug supply.

As one of Toronto’s last providers of supervised consumption services, we continue to believe and trust in harm reduction to save lives and minimize the negative impacts of drug use. We believe in caring for people without requiring they stop using drugs in order to receive support.

With such great need for mental health care, overdose prevention, and shelter it’s essential to see the humanity of all people in our community.
This is everyone’s city.

Thank you for making compassionate HIV care a Big F*cking Deal-- our short film already has more than 100,000+ views. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but sometimes it just needs a spark of curiosity or empathy to start something big. This is just one fictional story, but there are hundreds of thousands of real-life stories of stigma out there. Thanks to your support, we hope to start 100,000 conversations about stigma, HIV awareness, and empathy.

Our Story

Canada’s only stand-alone HIV/AIDS hospital with inpatient, outpatient and community care. Casey House is still one of the few places where people with HIV/AIDS can seek care without judgement. We are more than a place that saves lives, we are a place that speaks up, shines understanding through compassion, and empowers our clients to get better. We make our clients’ humanity more visible than their disease.
