The face of poverty is changing. WoodGreen provides solutions.
WoodGreen is one of the largest social service agencies in Toronto, delivering a broad range of integrated programs — from physical, mental health and disability services to affordable housing and employment initiatives.

A long-time Toronto resident, Norm deeply values supporting the very real efforts of those
seeking to bring real change to real people.
