But RMH Toronto is more than just a place for families to lay their heads. We are somewhere where families and their children can continue the familiar routines of home life, despite their traumatic situations. We provide an atmosphere of compassion and understanding in a stressful and frightening time.
Mission
To provide a "home away from home" for seriously ill children and their families to heal better together.
But our House is more than just a place for families to stay. We strive to provide a sense of normalcy for our children and families during a chaotic and traumatic time. The House is somewhere families can go about their regular routines – doing laundry, walking their kids to school, eating dinner as a family – as much as possible. The House offers an atmosphere of compassion and understanding in a stressful and often frightening time.
