The Ontario Community Support Association (OCSA) is the voice of the home and community support sector. Across the province each year, more than one million people receive home care and community support services (CSS) such as in-home nursing, therapy and personal support, Meals on Wheels®, adult/Alzheimer day programs, transportation to medical appointments, respite for family caregivers, hospice/palliative care, supportive housing and attendant services for persons with disabilities. These services are important, cost-effective measures that prevent unnecessary hospitalizations, emergency room visits and premature institutionalization. OCSA’s members provide home care services contracted by Community Care Access Centres (CCACs) and community support services directly funded by the 14 Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) in Ontario.

OCSA was at Queen’s Park yesterday for the lobby day, joining nine community health associations to call for closing the wage gap across our sector. These disparities continue to challenge recruitment, retention, and overall system stability.

We appreciated the strong engagement from government and all opposition parties. Our CEO Lori Holloway and Board Member Mila Ray-Daniels met with Minister Sylvia Jones , MPP Adil Shamji, MPP Tyler Watt, MPP John Jordan, and staff from the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing .

Thank you to everyone we met with and to the members and frontline staff whose experience drives this advocacy forward.

Today’s announcement that Ontario will invest $1.1 billion to protect and expand home care is a welcome step toward strengthening care across the province.

As OCSA CEO Lori Holloway noted:

“The Ontario Community Support Association welcomes this significant investment in home care. Previous funding commitments have helped stabilize the sector, supporting a measurable reduction in staff turnover and fewer missed care visits. These improvements mean more Ontarians are receiving the care they need, when and where they need it. We encourage the government to continue to invest in programs like Hospital to Home and organizations that bring together home care, community support, and independent living services, which are essential to building a system that keeps people healthy, connected, and cared for at home.”
