Rosewood House opened in June of 1998. Originally Rosewood operated as a for profit group home housing mental health consumers. Rosewood was intended to provide a safe haven for people in the community who were dealing with severe mental illness. In its first five weeks of operation, Rosewood was at full capacity and compiling a waiting list as the demand for Rosewoods services increased.During Rosewood's three years of operation we have garnered a great deal of support from the community and related agencies. Private and corporate donations helped us to make ends meet as we struggled to obtain long term assistance to continue our work.

Community Resource Service began as a result of the economic hardship that hit our community in the late 1980s. Originally called the Brantford Unemployed Help Centre, our organization started by providing support and advocacy to those affected by the economic downturn. As a local charity, Community Resource Service provides support to those in need and has developed programs to support individuals and families facing economic hardship, and for those needing support in finding employment. Programs, including Food Bank and Distribution Services, Employment Services, Advocacy and Christmas Baskets, have been part of our support to the community.
