In the third episode of our series, we speak with Jeannette Waegemakers Schiff, an Emerita Professor at the University of Calgary, and a founder of the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness and the Canadian Homeless Research Network.
Jeannette describes the housing first program model, and how housing programs can address gaps in health and social services for individuals without homes. She discusses the differences between rural and urban homelessness, and how public health policies and programs can be responsive to the unique needs of rural communities.
