About Us
An innovative solution to the need for accessible retirement living in Ontario
Across Ontario we are seeing a growing population of seniors with specific housing needs not being met by existing options. Many older adults in the province are insecurely housed; should a minor medical event occur, they may not be able to return home. Many are lonely, disenfranchised seniors who now find themselves in hospital with no place to go. They may not be able to return to homes with stairs, small spaces unsuited to the requirements of mobility aids, or at a distance from the supports they now need. Many do not have family members or friends who can assume responsibility for their care.
A non-profit, charitable organization dedicated to the growing number of vulnerable seniors across Canada
Stillbrook Retirement Residences has been designed unlike any previous concept in affordable housing for vulnerable populations. We started with the premise that as a not for profit organization committed to the care of vulnerable seniors, we could design a new environment that would be able to meet the health needs of residents and do so cost-effectively…and at scale.
We will leverage technology to facilitate connectivity to local health service partners, minimizing the need for residents to travel to receive their care.
Our intention is to build 100 residences across Ontario, each with 178 suites, serving 196 individuals. We will essentially create an entirely new sector in health and housing.
Accessible For All
We started with a monthly cost target that was 50% of the average cost of retirement homes and “reverse engineered” our structure and services to meet that target. We are excited that municipalities across the province are working with us to provide subsidies wherever possible to help us achieve these targets.
Our team is strong and experienced in the design, building, financing, and maintaining of similar projects in addition to the capabilities needed to service and support our residents.
