Why:
London is participating in the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness (CAEH) campaign which aims to identify and house 20,000 individuals and families who are experiencing homelessness in communities across Canada by July 1, 2018.
London’s Registry Week October 19-23, 2015: During Registry Week teams of trained volunteers, led by professional staff, will systematically canvass the community and complete a short survey with individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Survey locations include emergency shelters, drop-in service locations and outreach routes in known areas.
Gathering information about homelessness in our community assists all of us to respond in a coordinated and integrated way that focuses on housing stability for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
