Project Upstream provides a choice of ongoing flexible support services and permanent affordable housing options to individuals with long-term mental illness to assist them to function at their optimum level in the community.

We pioneered a family case management approach and continue to serve clients both individually and within a wide range of family situations.

If you want to apply for case management services from Project Upstream and/or other service providers in Ottawa-Carleton, please contact:

If you are only looking for affordable housing, we do have a small number of rent-geared-to-income units (both in group settings and apartments). Turnover is very low, however, so waiting lists are long. You’re welcome to contact us directly to explore housing options. The contact information is the same as above. Simply ask for Project Upstream.
