City of Toronto - Budget Considerations 2012
Although it will be January before a final budget for the coming year is voted on by City Council, two programs at Ffie House are at risk of having funding cut or reduced under the recommendations proposed. These are the Homeless Outreach Program (HOP), which served 426 people last year (including 56 families) and the Peer Navigator Project which employs HIV+ persons to assist HOP. With a success rate of 80 - 85% this program has helped hundreds of people find affordable housing in the GTA, something that is becoming rarer.

An incredible evening with Alannah Myles!
A Black Velvet Benefit for Fife House rocks the Glenn Gould Studio!
With a fantastic band backing her, Alannah Myles took to the stage to once again provide proof that she still has the voice and vocal skills that made her a Grammy and Juno award winning Canadian recording artist.
Hosted by CBC personality Suhana Meharchand, Alannah treated the crowd to all her most renowned hits, closing her performance with Black Velvet. The evening was powerful and moving, not only for her amazing voice, but by demonstrating her resiliency in overcoming obstacles to retain her place in the world.
