Gamelin Residence is also a building for mentally challenged individuals, but with greater need of supervision.  This project was made possible following a request by the "Hearst and District Association for the Mentally Handicapped" whose mandate is to provide services to mentally handicapped individuals in the Hearst area.

The building was originally owned by "les Soeurs de la Charité de la Providence" and was constructed in 1979, when the Order moved from their residence in the local hospital.  Originally designed as a fourplex, it was modified during construction to accommodate the sisters' requirements for a communal living arrangement.  It was converted back to a fourplex when the Town of Hearst Non-Profit Housing Corporation purchased the property in 1995.

The building comprises 2 one-bedroom apartments and 2 two-bedroom apartments, 1 common laundry room and 1 common room/kitchen.
