Chronic homelessness is growing across The Region, and it has reached a crisis point for many communities across the country. In Waterloo Region, it is estimated to have increased at a rate of 28 percent, year-over-year since 2020. Why is this happening? And what are we doing about it?
Your Region Pod is working on a series that explores the history behind long term homelessness, the causes, and the plan to end it. What does it mean for our community, and what will it take to achieve this goal?
We will hear from the people who have experienced homelessness, the academics who study it, and the key players who are working to address the crisis here in The Region.
Our first episode, The State of Chronic Homelessness in The Region. How did we get here? will try to provide some context on how we got here.
