With the generous support of the Green Sanderson Family, Stella’s Place has launched a $500,000 matching gift initiative to accelerate the completion of our new home. Your investment today will allow us to open doors next year, in the Fall of 2021.

Canada’s mental health system is failing young adults. Emergency rooms are over-whelmed and ill-suited to treating young people for their mental health struggles. Untreated mental illness is debilitating, and all too frequently has tragic consequences.



At Stella’s Place, we have designed and are delivering a solution that is responsive to the needs of young adults while relieving the strain on hospitals.

Economic Impact
Stella’s Place is keeping young people out of emergency departments and costly inpatient services, saving Ontario $2.75M in direct costs annually.
Employment participation outcomes save an additional $2.88M in social assistance payments, while increasing provincial income tax payments by $232,000.
More Than Bricks & Mortar
Stella’s Place at 54 Wolseley will be a a vital healing hub with:
Vibrant, open spaces bathed in natural light, uplifting the senses and fostering a spirit of hope
Natural materials and green space, soothing the body and grounding the mind
Unobstructed sightlines and intuitive building navigation, promoting a sense of ease and belonging


Modern technology and multi-media resources, supporting the spectrum of young adult learning styles and enhancing experiential healing
Inclusive, barrier-free design, respecting the dignity of all individuals
Multi-function room design, accommodating our wide menu of current and future programs
Fully equipped community and teaching kitchens, encouraging sharing and holistic wellness
Comfortable and flexible work space for staff, expanding our ability to create, collaborate, innovate and grow
We have outgrown our leased space at 18 Camden Street and must relocate—or risk turning away young adults in need. A newer, larger and permanent flagship location will reassure our young adult participants that Stella’s Place is here to stay.
