Our History
Our History
Margaret’s opened its doors in 1984 in honour of the well-known Toronto feminist and activist – the late Margaret Frazer. She started the agency alongside a group of other intrepid women, which included renowned journalist, author and social activist – the late June Callwood.
Our organization and services honour Ms. Frazer’s legacy of a lifetime spent serving and giving to others.
Since its inception, Margaret’s has been the leading organization in Toronto providing women suffering from mental illness with safe, dignified, and affordable housing options and other support services open to all.

Land Acknowledgement
As an organization, Margaret’s acknowledges the land we meet and operate on is the traditional territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.
We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the First Nations Peoples of these territories for allowing us the privilege of meeting on your ancestral lands. We thank you for the opportunity to continue the work of building a more just and equitable society for all.
