Special Priority Program for Rent-Geared-to-Income Housing

The City of Toronto gives top priority for rent-geared-to-income (subsidized) housing to households leaving abuse or human trafficking. Special Priority households are placed ahead of others on the waiting list, so housing is not a barrier to leaving.
