Employment Services help people set and achieve
important life goals. Rupert is one of these people.
A student at the University of Western Ontario,
Rupert was recently chosen as an Ambassador on
the 2004 Junior Team Canada Mission to China and
Hong Kong. Rupert believes that WoodGreen has
played an important role in helping him get to
where he is today.
Rupert’s first summer job placement working
at the CNE was through WoodGreen’s Youth Job
Centre which aided in his resume building and job
search process. He also began volunteering for
WoodGreen in grade 12, helping at fundraising

events and visiting seniors. He says that this experience
“inspired him to become more involved as a youth” as
he went on to become the vice president of external
affairs at his high school and a member of the Toronto
District School Board’s Super Council working to
ensure that students’ concerns were being addressed.
To day Rupert is studying business and international
development, and is involved in many extra-curricular
and volunteer activities at school. He is also the
recipient of two provincial scholarship awards.
“WoodGreen’s services have had a positive impact
on my career and leadership development,” says
Rupert. “Getting involved as a youth has propelled
me to achieve my goals.”

Providing a safe
and stable home
Nearly 20 years ago, Brian lost his wife, two children
and his mother in a fire. Struggling to cope with his
tragic loss, Brian ended up losing his job and becoming
homeless. During his last 10 years on the street, he
lived in Tent City, an illegal squatter community in
the east end of Toronto, and started using drugs and
developed multiple health issues. When Tent City was
closed down in the fall of 2002, Brian was evicted
from his trailer along with the approximately 100
residents who had been living there.
Thankfully with the assistance of WoodGreen, the
City of Toronto and Toronto Community Housing
Corporation, Brian has been able to find and maintain
housing in the private rental market. The City of
To ronto’s rent supplement pilot project for the
ex-residents of Tent City ensures that Brian’s monthly
rent is paid, while WoodGreen provides housing
support to ensure that he keeps his apartment. As a
result, Brian’s life changed dramatically for the better.
Last year, WoodGreen assisted
more than 1,700 individuals with a
history of homelessness to access
and maintain stable housing.
Employment Services highlights:
•
provided support and training programs to more than
7,000 youth and adults looking for employment
•
provided FREE access to computers, phones and
job search information to thousands of job seekers
•
delivered more than 2,000 individual job
coaching sessions
•
found part-time, full time and summer employment
for close to 1,500 adults and youth
•
supported hundreds of new immigrants through
job search workshops
Now 60, he finally has a stable home of his own and
he has stopped taking drugs. His health has improved
dramatically and he feels safe, no longer having to
worry about the security issues of being on the street.
A recent study of the ex-residents of Tent City showed
that since getting off the streets 70 per cent had cut their
use of drugs and alcohol, 15 per cent had gone back to
school and 11 per cent had found part-time employment.
This same study also showed that helping people with
a history of homelessness through rent supplements
and housing support is much more cost effective – 28
per cent less – than supporting the same individuals
in the shelter system.
Sadly many people still die on the street every year
because of a lack of affordable housing. That's why
more programs like this one are needed. For Brian,
it has meant that for the first time in 20 years, he has
hope for the future.
Housing & Homelessness Services highlights:
•
provided affordable housing and support to 452 households
•
assisted more than 1,700 individuals to access and/or
maintain stable housing
•
prevented 100 families from being evicted due to rent arrears
•
worked in partnership with the provincial and city
governments to assist more than 100 Tent City residents
to obtain stable housing
•
advocated for more affordable housing in Toronto

Immigrant Services highlights:
•
helped 5,000 newcomers settle into
their new lives in Canada
•
recruited more than 300 newcomer volunteers to
support programs including workshops, professional
forums, and social and recreational activities
•
offered services in ten languages (English, French,
Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Turkish, Tamil,
Bengali, Urdu, German) to newcomers
In the summer of 2003, after years of being moved
around and brutalized by their father and his relatives,
two teenage brothers were referred to WoodGreen’s
Immigrant Services by the Children’s Aid Society in
To ronto. Having first immigrated to Canada in 1999,
they were being treated as illegal immigrants and being
asked to leave the country, after their father (born
in Zaire) had withdrawn his sponsorship of them.
Their lives had taken them from an early childhood
in Switzerland, to being kidnapped by their father
and taken to France and then to Canada. While
reunited with their mother for a few short years in
her homeland of Zimbabwe, she died suddenly there.
So the brothers were sent back to live with their
father in Canada who abused them both physically
and psychologically, and refused to feed them. In
part, as a result of the abuse, the younger brother
developed a schizophrenic condition.
WoodGreen intervened to keep the brothers in
Canada. Assembling a team of individuals, including
a refugee lawyer, the boys’ guidance counsellor at
school, a staff psychiatrist at the Hospital for Sick
Children and their Member of Parliament, WoodGreen
helped to convince Citizenship and Immigration to
allow the brothers to become protected persons of
the Government of Canada. The brothers are very
excited about becoming citizens of Canada – the one
place they feel truly accepted and safe. It has given
them a sense that they really belong somewhere and
that they can now finally go on and build their lives.

When Keri, a mother of four, enrolled her daughter in
the Bruce/WoodGreen Early Learning Centre, she could
see the advantages of the program almost immediately.
One of five Toronto First Duty Projects, Bruce/
WoodGreen combines kindergarten, child care and
parenting supports into one comprehensive program.
Lower teacher-to-child ratios, available parental
supports and regular communication between all
the staff in the program create a place where children
feel comfortable and secure – a place ideal for
optimum learning and development.
Having had the experience of one daughter who
went directly into kindergarten and one daughter
in the Bruce/WoodGreen program, Keri says that
the differences are incredible. She believes the
Bruce/WoodGreen approach has made it much easier
for her daughter to adjust to a new school, new

benefit of the program.
While the results of a recent study on the program
have not been released yet, initial data indicates that
children within this new model are advancing quickly
academically and that they are thriving both socially
and emotionally. Keri attributes the program’s success
to the ongoing support available to parents and to
the excellent communication between staff, who meet
weekly to ensure that they are accommodating the
children’s individual interests and needs within the
program. “Having everything integrated into one
program really works,” says Keri, adding that it
should be made available to all families.
Mental Health and Developmental Services highlights:
•
increased the number of individuals supported through
mental health case management services by 50%
•
enhanced our capacity to respond to people with dual
diagnosis (mental and developmental challenges)
•
involved 109 individuals in our mental health
group programs
•
supported more than 75 individuals with developmental
challenges in the community
•
provided support and information to more than 180
children with developmental challenges and their families

Giving people a
sense of purpose
Chris is an adult with a developmental challenge. Due
to a delay in his cognitive processes, he can not hold
down a job or support himself financially. At 32,
Chris still lives with his parents. After his siblings left
home a few years ago, it was very difficult for him to
adjust, often feeling left behind. Chris was spending a
lot of time at home alone, feeling bored and often
isolated. Becoming an active volunteer at WoodGreen
about two years ago has changed all that.
To d a y, C h r is volunteers two to three days a week
carrying out important responsibilities, including
shredding all of the agency’s confidential papers, filing
reports, and going to the supportive housing cluster
every week to unpack and put away the groceries.
According to Chris’s mom, volunteering at WoodGreen
has given him a reason to get out of bed each day.
She says that Chris’s work at WoodGreen makes him
feel valued and gives him a real sense of purpose. He
looks forward to coming in to WoodGreen each week
and getting his work done, and he’s made many friends.
Last year, WoodGreen provided support
and services to more than 350 individuals
and families dealing with developmental
and mental health challenges.
Chris is just one of the more than 75 individuals
with developmental challenges in the community
that WoodGreen helps each year. He’s also one of
more than 900 volunteers who give their time and
share their talents to support WoodGreen’s many
essential programs and services.

Volunteers
making a difference
Last year more than 900 volunteers shared their time and their talents with WoodGreen.
Contributing a total of 62,000 hours, WoodGreen volunteers did everything from running
special events and delivering meals to seniors, to assisting with day programs for newcomers,
sorting mail, and sitting on leadership committees. Our volunteers worked along side staff
making the mission and vision of our organization come to life in so many ways including:
• Providing tax preparation services in 20 different
languages to clients throughout the community
• Delivering 22,110 meals to thousands of seniors,
many of whom were frail and isolated
• Partnering with the Second Mile Club of Toronto to
provide volunteer training to increase our capacity
to escort frail seniors to medical appointments
• Greeting, registering and touring delegates from
the 20th International IFS Conference, hosted by
WoodGreen, where people from 18 different
countries came together to learn about “Building
Inclusive Communities”
WoodGreen’s corporate volunteer program was
supported b
y our many wonderful corporate partners,
including the Canadian Tire Foundation for Families,
Axa Insurance, Sears Canada and Desjardins Financial
Security. Last year, employees from these corporations
along with representatives from our service partner,
the Toronto East Rotary Club, volunteered more than
1,800 hours to WoodGreen.
Neighbourhood Programs highlights:
•
opened a new Neighbourhood Centre at Donlands and
Cosburn which is providing after-school and weekend
programs for children in the community, and support to
WoodGreen’s new Homeward Bound Program – aimed
at helping women and their children transition from
shelter life to economic self-sufficiency
•
worked with East York East Toronto Family Resources
to ensure adequate space for the Ontario Early Years
Centre in the Toronto Danforth Riding

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIR
Brian Smith, President
Jan Goddard, Chair
We all deserve
the essentials
of life
For many of us the essentials of life are a given.
Having a job to go to each day, a child care centre
that we trust, help with an aging parent, friends or
neighbours we can turn to in times of need, and a
safe place to come home to each night are all things
that we have come to expect or things that we have
always had. But for many others living in Toronto,
these essentials are seriously lacking.
That’s why every year, more than 37,000 individuals
and families come to WoodGreen. Our clients are
people like the ones you’ve just read about – people
who have immigrated to Canada in search of a better
life, but can’t find affordable housing or access basic
healthcare. They are youths and adults who, no
matter how hard they try, just can’t seem to get
a job. They are seniors struggling to cope with
significant health, mobility and socialization issues.
They are adults living with mental health and
developmental challenges trying to find a place to fit
in. They are men, women and children who would
give anything for a safe place to sleep at night. They
WoodGreen Community Services
are your neighbours, and the people you see on the
bus or who you pass on the street.
WoodGreen’s many programs and services are
built on the fundamental belief that all of these
people – every man, woman and child – should
have access to the essentials of life. It’s the reason
that our dedicated staff comes to work each day
and that our 900 plus volunteers give more than
62,000 hours of their own time each year to
support WoodGreen. And it’s also the reason for
the unwavering support of our many funders,
donors and community partners, for which we
are so grateful.
WoodGreen is a necessity – never a luxury – to
our many clients. We can’t imagine what would have
happened last year if the 22,110 meals weren’t delivered
to those seniors’ homes or that we didn’t open our
doors to the more than 7,000 adults and youth
who needed help finding a job. And if it weren’t for
WoodGreen, what would have become of the more
than 1,400 people and families for whom we found
stable housing or the more than 5,000 newcomers
who we helped settle into their new lives in Canada?
All of the stories found in this Annual Report and
the highlights of our accomplishments over the last
year barely skim the surface of all the ways WoodGreen
makes a difference in our community. But they do
make one thing perfectly clear – that we provide the
essentials of life to our clients and that WoodGreen’s
services are essential to our clients’ lives.
