Metro Community Housing Association MCHA provides supportive homes and community to individuals living with mental wellness challenges

Metro Community Housing Association is a non-profit, community based organization that provides support to persons living with pervasive and chronic mental illness. Established in 1974, we pride ourselves on the individualized approach in providing supportive homes and community, with 15 homes and over 60 supported apartment settings. Our referral process and thorough assessment result in the best possible match of person and community support option. Our staff take a collaborative multidisciplinary approach working as part of a support team to provide high quality service to those in our care. At present the majority of our supported individuals are funded through public financial assistance programs, such as those operated by the Nova Scotia Department of Community Services, Disability Support Program. However we are very open to receiving referrals and inquiries from self referring individuals, family and health care / support professionals. If you are interested in learning more about our services please Contact Us, we'd love to hear from you.

🌨️🦫 Groundhog Day in Nova Scotia! 🌷
Our favourite local forecaster, Shubenacadie Sam, stayed cozy in her burrow this Groundhog Day thanks to the winter storm rolling through. According to tradition, no appearance means… an early spring could be on the way! 🌼
Whether spring is right around the corner or winter has a few tricks left, we love these little moments that bring our community together and give us something to smile about.
What do you think, are we ready for spring? 💬☀️

Welcome to Chocolate That Goes the Distance
Metro Community Housing Association | Campaign ID: #000021122
This Easter, enjoy chocolate that makes a difference. Chocolate That Goes the Distance is MCHA’s Easter fundraiser supporting our Bluenose Marathon teams and the participants they support. Featuring Purdy’s Chocolatier, every purchase helps fund social inclusion, wellness, and participant-led experiences. From Easter baskets to finish lines, your support helps our community go the distance, together.

Let’s be real, you’re buying Easter chocolate anyway 🐣🍫
Why not let it support mental health too?

We are raising funds for MCHA’s Bluenose Marathon teams through Purdy’s Chocolatier. Anyone in Canada can order online, ship directly to their home (or if you are local save shipping costs and have shipped to us for pick up) , and a portion supports participant programs and social inclusion.

Same chocolate. Better impact. https://fundraising.purdys.com/campaign/000021122/shop

We are hiring a Home Share Coordinator!

Home Share is a new way of supporting people with disabilities in Nova Scotia, but it is a model of support offered in other parts of Canada and internationally. A person seeking support gets to choose where they want to live with screened and approved Home Share Providers that are supported and monitored by a Coordinating Organization. The person supported may live in their own home with a live-in Home Share Provider, or more often, they may move in with a person or family that meets the provincial and organizational requirements AND their wants and needs.

It is a community-based model of support that allows for a high degree of individualization and choice, and which has high Quality of Life outcomes.

The Home Share Coordinator is responsible for screening, matching, coordinating, monitoring, and strengthening Home Share living arrangements in alignment with person-directed principles, safeguarding requirements, and organizational and provincial policies and practices. This role supports individuals, Home Share Providers, and families to ensure safe, meaningful, and sustainable home sharing relationships that promote autonomy, inclusion, and quality of life.

This role requires someone who can form strong and consistent relationships with people and who is passionate about the principles of community living.
