Joseph's House is where homeless people with terminal illness go to rest & be treated well.
Community residents listened to the director Patricia Wudel of Joseph's House, located on Lanier Place NW at the corner of Ontario Road. Residents sit around the table in the dining room where the 6 residents and 2 or more staff eat together.
This mural wall-hanging adorns one dining room wall, where the story of Joseph's house is told in a visual expression/explosion.
The kitchen has a gallery of spices and photos looking over the meal preparation.
More photos adorn the dining room.

- board games
