Established in 1985, we have 3 and 4 bedroom units to accommodate larger families, and are located in south east Scarborough.

Actions
GDNP Homes supports building community involvement within GDNP Homes and the extended South East Scarborough Indigenous community. Through encouraging and promoting a better understanding of Indigenous peoples’ needs as indicated by community consultation, GDNP Homes holds space for collaboration with other Indigenous agencies and organizations to provide resources. The support mechanisms address for cultural safety, self determination and building community capacity. GDNP Homes is dedicated providing safe, rent-geared-to-income units and to delivering programs to enhance the social and cultural position of Indigenous peoples in an urban setting.
Positive Space
This is a place where human rights are respected and where two spirit, lesbian, gay bisexual, transsexual, transgender and queer people and their friends and allies are welcome and supported.
