Toronto to Launch First “Black-Mandated” Shelter
Toronto is set to launch the country’s first shelter specifically for black people, a facility to be operated by black-led, black-focused, and black-serving nonprofits, known as “B3” organizations. The “black-mandated” shelter is intended to provide “culturally appropriate” support tailored to the needs of Toronto’s black community.
