Supportive Housing Visit-Balwin Place

Supportive Housing Visit

About Balwin Place

Units: 25

Operator: George Spady Society

Balwin Place is a Supportive Housing facility operated by the George Spady Society (GSS) in partnership with Alberta Health Services (AHS). Onsite staff provides essential services and long-term housing stability to individuals with complex needs who have experienced chronic homelessness.

About the site visit:

• Site visits will be in small groups of 8-10 people by registered time and name. Walk ups are available but on a first-come, first served basis if there is space.
• Staff will provide a brief overview of Supportive Housing, describe the unique aspects of the building and the supports offered, and invite guests into the common areas. As we anticipate the building to be fully occupied, we will not be able to provide access to residents' private homes; however, on the off chance there is a vacant suite, we will include it on the visit.
• Please dress warmly as you may need to wait outside until your tour timeslot due to building capacity.
• We also kindly ask guests to remember these are people's homes so please do take any images or approach residents who have a right to privacy but rather direct any questions to onsite staff.
