Service Managers Children’s Aid Registries & providers

1. Service Manager / housing registry (47 areas)

Service Managers run centralized wait lists for rent-geared-to-income housing, homelessness programs, and often SPP. Search by city, township, or board name.

2. Children’s Aid Society / Indigenous Child and Family Well-Being Agency

Use this when a child or youth’s safety is part of the housing plan, when a society is already involved, or when a mandated report question arises. Indigenous families have a right to culturally aligned agencies where they exist. Confirm catchment by phone — some cities have more than one society.

If a child is in immediate danger, call 911. To reach the society that serves a place, search below or use the OACAS locator.

3. Social housing providers and municipal registries

Most new RGI offers still go through the Service Manager wait list. Local housing corporations manage stock after an offer. Search a municipality to see the access centre plus known local providers.

This list highlights major corporations and access centres. Hundreds of non-profit providers sit behind each centralized list. Ask the Service Manager for the building-selection package for that municipality.
