Descriptiontext

Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) is the City of Toronto's municipal social housing provider and Canada's largest, serving 58,500 households across a portfolio of residential buildings concentrated entirely within Toronto. Founded in 2002 as a wholly owned City of Toronto corporation, TCHC operates three housing tiers: market rent, affordable rent below market rates, and Rent-Geared-to-Income (RGI) subsidized housing where tenants pay a percentage of household income. Tenant access is managed through the centralized Housing Connections waitlist at housingconnections.ca.

TCHC's operational footprint extends beyond housing delivery into tenant services (maintenance, repairs, pest control, accessibility accommodations), a Community Safety Unit, and an extensive programming layer including youth initiatives (Camp Inspire, KickStart, Midnight Basketball, HeadstART, YouthWorx), employment and small business support (Be.Build.Brand., I AM mentorship), multiple scholarship programs, and EDI programming anchored by The Centre for Advancing the Interests of Black People. Adjacent services include an Affordable Internet and Mobile Program and a Tenant Insurance Program facilitated through partnerships with Housing Services Corporation and TD Insurance.

The organization is currently executing major mixed-income, mixed-tenure revitalization projects across multiple Toronto neighborhoods including Regent Park, Alexandra Park, Don Summerville, Lawrence Heights, Firgrove-Grassways, and Swansea Mews. Recent milestones include the February 2026 opening of the 103-unit Atkinson Co-operative at 130 Augusta Avenue (developed with Tridel) and an $86M+ federal funding announcement in March 2026 supporting 271 new affordable homes in Regent Park. New construction meets Toronto Green Standard Version 3 Tier 2 with fully electric HVAC systems. Core technology is property management infrastructure rather than software; there is no proprietary technology stack, and revenue figures are not publicly disclosed, consistent with the entity's status as a publicly funded municipal corporation.
