Sistering is a women’s agency serving homeless, marginalized and low-income women in Toronto. Our programs and services help women gain greater control over their life circumstances. Our advocacy focuses on changing the social conditions that put women at risk. And our service philosophy is to ensure that women’s dignity is not eroded by poverty and homelessness.

Sistering’s Drop Ins offer safe space to spend daytime hours in a welcoming, multilingual and multiracial environment. Women access hot meals, individual support to cope with issues and referral to specialized services. From breaking social isolation to enhancing well-being, Sistering’s drop ins open the door to a supportive community built on trust and respect. more
