Street to Trail AssociationStreet to Trail is a non-profit organization that helps people living on the streets of Toronto rediscover their inner sense of worth using the healing power of the natural world. Street to Trail organizes wilderness hikes and other outdoor excursions including canoe trips that help homeless people experience the beauty and therapeutic calmness of nature. Here at Street to Trail, we believe that by getting troubled people away from the city to participate in a wilderness trip they can benefit positively by increasing their self-confidence, enjoying a positive environment to support overcome addictions, find new, meaningful relationships and rediscovering lost feelings of peace and hope.

The results support our belief that time spent in nature, and in the wilderness in particular, is therapeutic and beneficial for people who are economically disadvantaged.
