The Gatehouse is a registered charity that operates in Toronto, Canada treating the survivors of child abuse. The headquarters for the charity was the doctor's house for the Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital, built in the 1890s. It was abandoned for over 30 years and restored for use by the charity. A renovation valued at over $300,000 was completed for under $30,000 because of the support given by the community. The vision of The Gatehouse and the restoration of the house was the creation of Arthur Raymond Lockhart who had the idea to reach out to survivors of child abuse within the community. His vision is to give survivors a place to tell their stories, to give them back their voices, to heal their wounds and to inspire them to see their own potential. Fundraising initiatives raise money for programs that provide support to the Adult Support Network and the Investigation Support Program. The Gatehouse is supported by hundreds of volunteers all dedicated to improving the lives of individuals affected by childhood abuse. The Gatehouse is not core funded by any agency or organization.
