Barrett House



In 1986, the AIDS crisis was causing bewilderment, fear and suffering in Toronto. Those who were fighting for their lives used up their financial resources in their battle with AIDS, then found themselves ill and homeless.

In response to this crisis, Barrett House opened in October 1986. Barrett House was Toronto's first supportive housing residence for people living with HIV and AIDS.

Barrett House provides a dignified, caring and homelike environment for persons living with HIV and AIDS who require ongoing care.
