<span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><strong>The beginning of the end of homelessness in Canada: 20,000 Homes Campaign launched today</strong></span></h1>
<div style="text-align: left; color: rgb(68, 68, 68); line-height: 150%; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14px;">Today, 21 communities from across the country joined the CAEH to launch the 20,000 Homes Campaign<em>, </em>a powerful nationwide campaign that aims to permanently house 20,000 of Canada’s most vulnerable homeless people by July 1, 2018.<br>
<br>
“The 20,000 Homes Campaign is a grassroots movement of communities working together to permanently house some of our most vulnerable homeless neighbours,” says Tim Richter, President and CEO, CAEH. “Homelessness is a solvable problem and we believe if we work together, apply proven strategies like Housing First, we’ll achieve meaningful, nationwide reductions in homelessness within three years.”<br>
<br>
<a href="http://caeh.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3ab6441cec1986db191b15a35&id=7929822ffe&e=d0b338ce86" target="_blank" style="color: #bf1e2e;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;">The 21 communities that signed on today</a> are: Kamloops, B.C., Salt Spring Island, B.C., Sechelt / Sunshine Coast, B.C., Calgary, Alta., Edmonton, Alta., Medicine Hat, Alta., Lethbridge, Alta., Red Deer, Alta., Grande Prairie, Alta., Saskatoon, SK., Regina, SK., Hamilton, Ont., Kingston, Ont., Ottawa, Ont., Thunder Bay, Ont., Waterloo, Ont., Simcoe County, Ont., Fredericton, N.B., Moncton, N.B., Saint John, N.B., and Halifax, N.S. Many more cities are expected to join in the coming months.<br>
<br>
The campaign will engage thousands of volunteers in communities across Canada to get to know homeless people by name and assess their housing and health care needs through a simple survey. Completed surveys and recorded data will be shared with local staff who will prioritize entry into housing based on urgent need. Communities will then work together to house their most vulnerable homeless people, reporting progress regularly on the <a href="http://caeh.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3ab6441cec1986db191b15a35&id=c17d2f3e28&e=d0b338ce86" target="_blank" style="color: #bf1e2e;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;">campaign website</a>.<br>
<br>
”We’re going to extract every ounce of value we can from existing resources to get people housed,” Richter says, “but to end homelessness in Canada we will need meaningful federal investment in affordable and supportive housing.”<br>
<br>
Over the next three years the campaign hopes to build public support for ending homelessness and renewed federal investment in housing and support services.<br>
<br>
In October 2014 the CAEH and the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness released the <a href="http://caeh.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3ab6441cec1986db191b15a35&id=2260e18815&e=d0b338ce86" target="_blank" style="color: #bf1e2e;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;">State of Homelessness in Canada</a>. That report outlined how an additional federal housing investment of $46 per Canadian per year, for 10 years could effectively end homelessness, reducing length of stay in Canadian emergency shelters to less than two weeks.<br>
