HOUSING & SHELTER

For The People’s Project, the priority is to quickly move people into appropriate housing and immediately provide wrap-around services to address the issues that led to their homelessness. Services are co-ordinated from a centrally located office. This is not a drop-in centre for homeless people, but a central hub where the many different agencies working on The People’s Project can come together.
