Health and Dental Clinic

Our purpose at ehm is to work in partnership with some of downtown Toronto’s most vulnerable citizens – those facing poverty, physical and mental illnesses, and extreme social isolation – and help these individuals live the most healthy, dignified and independent lives possible.

As you can imagine, people without private insurance often have inadequate health care, particularly dental care. Dental services are simply unaffordable for many members of society. Social benefits include extremely limited coverage which does not allow for preventive hygiene work.

For people between the ages of 18 and 55, financial assistance is particularly limited. For the working poor, choices must be made between paying rent and treating extremely painful conditions.

Everyday in our drop-in and residence we see people suffering from lack of affordable and accessible health care services. This simply can not be allowed to continue. That is why ehm recently extended our services by establishing a new health and dental clinic, providing free services.

We have two dental suites and a medical office within our building to help serve as many people as we can.

We are currently recruiting Volunteer Dentists and Hygenists.
