Renovictions can be especially disruptive for seniors, as they may have to relocate to a spot that’s far from the community where they have put down roots.
Protecting seniors — many of them disabled — who are at risk of losing their homes due to renovictions has become a pressing issue for the Together Against Poverty Society’s Tenant Legal Advocacy Project.
Apart from removing them from their circle of friends, relocations also require more travel for things such as medical appointments. For those with mobility challenges, the changes can lead to social isolation. TAPS also provides free legal advocacy, advice and assistance with income assistance, disability benefits and employment standards. For the past month or so, the non-profit has been helping low-income earners fill out their tax returns.
“The Victoria Foundation has helped us in lots of ways. Their funding helps us build future resources and they are one of the few who help us connect with other local funders,” said King, who has been executive director since 2018.
