November 6th Downtown Toronto

What is homeless2home (h2h):

H2h is a participatory community exchange utilizing the immense practical
knowledge of people who have experienced homelessness. The “experts” at this
exchange are individuals of all ages who know first hand what it is like to
live without a home. The format and content of the exchange has been
developed by a team of formerly homeless youth, younger and older adults.
Participants will include: people who have experienced homelessness, people
who work with and for them, people who design the programs and policies, and
people who do the research. The team will challenge participants to generate
fresh ideas and commit to solutions to break the cycle of homelessness. 

The exchange will also include installations by local artists and
arts-informed projects addressing homelessness. Participants will be invited
to close the day by attending the reception and premiere of Home Safe
Calgary: a documentary chronicling family homelessness. 

Who will be there:

Approximately 100 individuals from in and around the GTA will be invited to
attend this free one day event: November 6th, at the University of Toronto.
The exchange is for people who are committed to taking action so that
“Housing First” becomes “home at last.”

            What support is available for peer participants:

            Participants on the day of the forum will receive a $50.00
honorarium, travel/transit expenses (pre-paid return train or bus tickets
for people outside of the Greater Toronto Area), lunch and refreshments.

How to get further information or be added to our invitation list: 

Invitations will be mailed late September to early October. If you are
