The Canadian Helen Keller Centre (CHKC) is a registered not-for-profit corporation that provides deeply affordable rental housing and support services for deafblind individuals. In accordance with this mission, they are undertaking the redevelopment of 150 Eighth Street in partnership with the City of Toronto as part of the Rapid Housing Initiative. This 56-unit affordable and accessible apartment building will help reduce CHKC’s waitlist and give more people with a combination of hearing and vision loss access to an independent life. So far, CHKC has secured $32 million of the $38 million needed to complete the project.
