A Groundbreaking Milestone: The Carefirst Campus of Care

On August 29, 2025, we officially broke ground on the Carefirst Campus of Care at 9893 Leslie Street, Richmond Hill. This marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter as we make a significant step toward delivering comprehensive, client-centered, integrated health and social services to seniors and individuals that need it. This milestone would not have been possible without the unwavering dedication of the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care and Carefirst team of Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, and donors. Together, our commitment to enhancing the well-being of our most vulnerable citizens is shaping the future of health and social care in York Region. We look forward to building a stronger, healthier, and more connected community! Thank you to everyone who has been part of making this vision a reality.
