2017 Supportive/Independent Living Housing Survey
The Township of Terrace Bay, in partnership with CGV Developments Inc. and Harriman & Associates, are in the planning stages of developing a supportive/independent living housing project inthe Terrace Bay community—this is by no means a social or subsidized housing project.
As part of this process, a Needs and Demand Study has been commissioned to be carried out by ARC Management and Harriman & Associates. This survey will play an important role in helping to identify the needs of the local community and those parties interested from neighbouring communities.The survey will take approximately 10 minutes of your time. Yours answers will remain anonymous and strictly confidential. Allsurveys will be destroyed once the information is tabulated and responses included in aggregate form within the final report.
While the definitions for supportive housing can be very broad, the Township of Terrace Bayrecognizes supportive/independent living housing as housing thathelps individuals in their daily living by combining a physical environment designed to behome-like with support services such as meals, housekeeping, and social and recreational activities. This environment also provides the opportunity for individuals,who may not necessarily need those services at present, to still live independently and have access to those services when needed.
Please complete and return the survey by October 16, 2017, to the following locations:
Terrace Bay Community CentreJ.E. Stokes Medical Centre
