Announcing an Executive Leadership Transition
In March 2026, the Government of Ontario announced its decision to end funding for supervised consumption services. With provincial funding set to end, Carepoint will be unable to continue providing supervised consumption services after June 13.
This is difficult news to share.
London, ON – Carepoint, London’s only supervised consumption service, will close on June 13 following the Ontario Government’s decision to withdraw funding for Consumption and Treatment Service sites across the province. After June 13, supervised consumption services delivered by Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) through its Carepoint program at 446 York Street will no longer be available.
Late Friday afternoon, the Ontario Ministry of Health notified Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) that it will terminate provincial funding for the Consumption and Treatment Services (CTS) site located at 446 York Street in London, operated by RHAC. The Ministry has indicated the funding agreement will end on June 13, 2026.
London’s CTS program has been in operation since 2019 and providing supervised consumption services, overdose response, and connections to health and social supports for people who use drugs in London.
Carepoint is closing on June 13
This year, Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) celebrates 40 years of serving our community. In 1985, a small group of activists came together as the “AIDS Committee of London.” Their courage and compassion grew RHAC into an organization that, today,serves six counties and strengthens local responses to HIV, hepatitis C, and some of the most complex health issues in our community.

Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) is grateful to Westminster College Foundation (WCF) for supporting the Rainbow Youth Space project. This collaborative of programs, including Open Closet and Rainbow Heroes, promotes important opportunities for connection and engagement among 2SLGBTQIA+ youth in London-Middlesex. During its period as a WCF grant recipient, Open Closet saw the number of youth participants double.
To our Community Partners, Careholders, and Members of the Public,
Regional HIV/AIDS Connection (RHAC) is deeply saddened to confirm the loss of a community member following an on-site medical emergency at Carepoint Consumption and Treatment Service (CTS).
