9 October 2025
Nearly $257 million invested to support critical infrastructure upgrades at hospitals and community health-care facilities across the province
FERGUS, ON — The Ontario government is continuing to protect local health care by investing $107,887 to upgrade infrastructure at Hope Place Centres in Hornby. This is part of a broader $257 million investment to support critical infrastructure upgrades and repairs at 126 hospitals and 66 community health-care facilities across the province.
Funding is being delivered through the Health Infrastructure Renewal Fund (HIRF) and the Community Infrastructure Renewal Fund (CIRF), helping ensure Ontarians can continue to access the care they need in safe, modern environments.
“Our government under the leadership of Premier Ford has made record investments into healthcare infrastructure, and Hope Place is an important part of that infrastructure in the Halton area. We are very fortunate to have Hope Place here in Halton Hills and we look forward to them serving our community for many years to come.” Said MPP of Wellington-Halton Hills, Joseph Racinsky.
The HIRF and CIRF programs enable health-care system partners to address their urgent infrastructure needs, including upgrading or replacing roofs, windows, security systems, fire alarms and emergency generators. This year, the Ontario government increased funding for these programs by 12.3 per cent.
“Our government is continuing to make historic investments to protect Ontario’s health-care system, ensuring that more people in Wellington-Halton Hills can connect to the care they need, where and when they need it,” said Sylvia Jones, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health. “Supporting infrastructure upgrades at Hope Place Centres is another way our government is ensuring people can receive high-quality care, closer to home.”
Ontario continues to make historic investments in health care. Over the next 10 years, the province is investing nearly $60 billion on major health infrastructure. This is part of the Ontario government’s plan to get shovels in the ground on more than 50 major hospital projects across the province, which will deliver approximately 3,000 new hospital beds and build a connected, people-first health-care system.
Through Your Health: A Plan For Connected and Convenient Care, Ontario is expanding and modernizing hospitals and building new health-care facilities, making it faster and easier for people of all ages to connect to the high-quality care they need, where and when they need it.
Hope Place Centres exists to provide life-changing addiction recovery services for individuals. The need is urgent, and it’s growing. The Community Infrastructure Renewal funding allows us to keep our doors open, our beds available, and our programs running at full strength. We extend our sincere thanks to MPP Racinsky and the Ministry of Health for their ongoing support of Hope Place Centres. Your continued commitment makes it possible for us to focus on what we do best, providing life-saving addiction care that supports long-term, sustainable recovery.” Said, Amy Wilson, CEO of Hope Place Centres.
