HOW WE HELP
Housing
We believe housing is a human right
Opportunities Yukon advocates independent living by providing housing options that are supportive and inclusive. Working in collaboration with the Yukon Government, we provide access to different kinds of residences that offer holistic care and support to people of different needs and abilities.
Cornerstone Community Residence
Cornerstone Community creates an environment for people to grow and thrive in their lives. The program is built on Housing First Principles, providing housing to those who have specific needs or abilities to address, whilst upholding the values of community network, empowerment, diversity and open access to basic services.
Cornerstone Community Residence currently has a waiting list – and we are not accepting new applications at this time.

Mental Health Transitional Treatment Residence
Mental Health Transitional Treatment Residence (MHTTR) offers people the chance to lead a satisfying life independently in the community. Built on the recovery model of bio-psychosocial rehabilitation, the program is led by our team of experts who help individuals build on their strengths, expand their skills and benefit from a vast bank of resources and tools that help them live independently.
Residents can participate in the programming offered through this residence for up to two years. The goal is to have individuals transition into independent living once they have completed their stay at the MHTTR.
