City of Toronto

Welcome Policy — recreation fee subsidy

A recreation-fee credit for eligible Toronto residents and families, used towards City recreation programs and memberships. It is not cash or a guarantee of a place in a program.

Coverage: Toronto residents; City-operated recreation programs

Who may be eligible

These are starting-point criteria, not an eligibility decision. The provider makes the final assessment.

  • You must live in Toronto and meet the City’s eligibility and income requirements. Read the current criteria and required-document rules on the City page.

How to access support

  1. Apply through the official City page. Phone interpretation and paper-application help are described there; check the support options that apply to you.
  2. Approved residents must reapply annually with updated documents.

Confirm current service area, appointments and access arrangements before travelling.

What to confirm with the provider

  • Your eligibility, a recreation-program place and current application capacity are not confirmed.

We cannot confirm live availability, spaces, stock or your individual eligibility.
