HTH is an intersectional feminist organization in Simcoe County, working to end all violence against all women. The organization has 40 years of expertise dedicated to meeting the unique needs of survivors of gender-based violence. HTH began in 1984 as an emergency shelter for women and their children fleeing violence in rural Midland, Ontario. Since then, HTH has significantly expanded and now operates multiple programs, including: 

• Emergency violence against women shelter 

• Sexual assault counselling and advocacy centre 

• County-wide group program for mothers and their children who have been exposed to abuse against their mothers 

• Anti-human trafficking longer-term residential program 
• A social enterprise in Midland, Ontario holistically designed to address food scarcity, isolation, poverty and the impacts of trauma in the lives of women who have experienced violence. 

We believe that all violence against all women and children must end. We are community members who are committed to education, advocacy, harm reduction, and poverty reduction as a means to end violence. Huronia Transition Homes is also committed to providing shelter and support to abused women and their children and to providing counselling to women survivors of sexual assault and socioeconomic opportunities through social enterprise.
