This Pride Month, we celebrate inclusion, belonging, and the diverse communities we serve every day.

This year’s Pride Toronto theme, “We Won’t Stop,” is a reminder of the importance of continuing to stand up for equity, dignity, and safe spaces for all.

At Dixon Hall, serving underserved communities with compassion and care is at the heart of who we are, and we remain committed to creating welcoming spaces where everyone feels seen, respected, and valued.

Happy Pride Month from all of us at Dixon Hall.

Yesterday we celebrated the graduation of our very first F.A.S.T Track to Hospitality cohort! 🎓
 
Over the last two weeks, this group focused on building the skills and confidence needed to begin their journey in the hospitality industry through certification-based and employment readiness training. Participants completed industry-focused learning in areas such as workplace expectations, customer service, food safety, and career preparation, while developing the professional skills needed to succeed in fast-paced hospitality environments.
 
The program concluded with a shared celebratory meal, where participants had the opportunity to cook together, connect as a team, and celebrate everything they accomplished throughout the training. It was great to see everyone show up each day, support one another, and proudly reach the finish line together. We are incredibly proud of the dedication and growth this group demonstrated, and we can’t wait to see where their journeys take them next.
 
A huge thank you to for making this program possible. We also want to thank .hotel.group and for providing workshops, industry insights, and opportunities for our participants throughout the program.

How do you know if what you’re reading about your health online is actually true?

Join us for an engaging talk on healthy aging with Dr. Milena Head, Professor of Information Systems at McMaster University, as she unpacks the science behind online misinformation and shares simple, practical ways to figure out what you can trust.

We live in a world overflowing with health advice, tips, and “quick fixes” but not all of them are reliable. This session is designed to help you feel more confident and informed when navigating health information online.

Expect a welcoming afternoon filled with thoughtful conversation, a live Q&A, and light refreshments while you connect with others in the community. Spots are limited, and registration is required. Don’t miss your chance to be part of it!

Happy Mother’s Day 💐

Today, we celebrate the mothers and mother figures who help hold our communities together.

At Dixon Hall, we see the care, strength, and support mothers show every single day. Whether it’s showing up for their families, helping others, or creating new opportunities, their impact is felt everywhere.

Thank you for all that you do and for the many ways you help make our community stronger.

Over the past few weeks, we've had the wonderful opportunity to welcome volunteers from Liberty Mutual across our Adult Day Program, Alzheimer's Day Program, and Friday Breakfast Program.

From helping prepare and serve over 80 meals to neighbours facing food insecurity, to sharing quality time with seniors through warm conversation and laughter, your team's kindness has made a genuine difference in the lives of those we serve.

A heartfelt thank you to Rob Marsh for your leadership and ongoing commitment, and to the entire Liberty Mutual Insurance team for choosing to partner with Dixon Hall. Together, we're helping build a community where everyone can truly belong and thrive.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our community open house at 504–508 Parliament Street.

This milestone marks the beginning of welcoming tenants into these restored heritage homes and strengthening our commitment to the Downtown East community.

Through our partnership with Reconnect Health Services, this space will provide supportive housing for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness, with wraparound supports that promote stability, health, and connection.

We’re grateful for your presence and feedback as we continue working together to build a safe, inclusive, and connected neighbourhood.

Last week, we partnered with EY for a networking event that brought people together to connect, share and learn from one another.

As part of the event, we hosted a speed mentoring session where EY volunteers rotated between tables, connecting with participants, sharing insights and answering questions in a more personal, one-on-one setting. It was great to see conversations flow and connections build throughout the room.

Thank you to the EY team for your time, energy and willingness to give back. Your support helps create meaningful opportunities for connection, learning and growth.
