SHOW UP. SPEAK OUT. SUPPORT.
A call to action from the St. Andrew’s KW Housing Initiative Corp. and the Roy St. Task Force
St. Andrew’s is planning a new, multi-generational residence where parents and their adult children with developmental disabilities can live separately—but together—in a supportive and intentional community. The Roy Street Residence Project is designed to provide stability, independence, and dignity for families who currently face long wait lists for appropriate housing.
But we need your help.
What’s happening:
On Monday, August 25 at 7:00 PM, Kitchener City Council will vote on whether to approve the demolition of two older buildings (11 Roy St. and 68 Queen St. N), so we can move forward with this vital housing project.
How you can make an impact:
Attend the meeting in person to show your support!
Arrive by 6:30 PM to get a seat in the gallery at Kitchener City Hall, 200 King St. W.
Free underground parking available at City Hall.
You do not need to live in Kitchener to attend!
If you live in Kitchener:
Contact your City Councillor and let them know why this project matters. Find your Councillor here: https://www.kitchener.ca/en/council-and-city-administration/find-your-city-councillor.aspx .
This is an outreach project rooted in the mission of St. Andrew’s: to build a more compassionate, inclusive community. Let’s fill the gallery and show that we care deeply about housing for all.
