Welcome to Dunn House — a prescription for change that has been years in the making. Housing is health. And this is the power of partnership. 51 UHN patients with no fixed address comprised over 4,000 emergency department visits in the past year. This is driven by the pathologies of poverty. For the 51 individuals moving in, this is more than housing—it's good health care. With primary care, Indigenous-led support, harm reduction and addiction treatment services, we’re redefining compassionate care for people experiencing homelessness. The work isn't done until tenants are settled in—and won’t feel real until I’m seeing patients in the clinic room right onsite. While a month in hospital costs over $30,000, supportive housing costs just $4,000, promoting human dignity and sound health economics. Grateful to our entire team, all partners and the advocacy of the Parkdale community for making this possible. This is just the beginning of showing the world that housing is healthcare.

Could you explain vaccine science to a 6-year-old? These students can! Aliens, wizards, ninjas & a bunny named Muffin are just some of the characters they introduced in their winning pitches of "Explain It Like I’m 6: A Vaccine Education Contest." bit.ly/4a13UQ2
