Summary | "More Canadians than ever lack a home. Almost every town and city now has homeless residents. Municipalities scramble to provide shelters, and local politicians debate whether to take action to end sleeping on vacant land and in parks. Social agencies providing services to the homeless see the need for new measures that prevent people from experiencing homelessness, rather than providing them with support once they have nowhere to live. In this book, leading figures involved in trying to end homelessness describe what they are doing, and make the case for a wide range of innovative measures."-- |
