[homeles_ot-l] We need your help: #OttawaNeedsMore

[Alliance To End Homelessness Ottawa]

*We need your help. *



Ottawa will be receiving a mere $845,000 increase, or just* 0.4%* of the
Province’s budget commitment of $202 million dollars. Toronto will be
receiving *60 times* as much increased funding as Ottawa. Yet, we are the
second largest city in Ontario.



This funding decision means that we will have to *cancel *supportive
housing units and critical programs to support people to exit homelessness.
We all know building a community for everyone #StartsWithHome



*Make your voice heard. *

*Write a letter to Minister Clark and Premier Ford
<https://www.endhomelessnessottawa.ca/ottawaneedsmore_campaign?e=da8cc6edb09ab5d4042807fe5d6c340b&utm_source=allianceottawa&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=_ottawaneedsmore2&n=2>
**to
help ensure we save lives and receive the care our community desperately
needs.*



*Join our social media blitz this morning on Twitter from 10am-noon *to put
pressure on the Ontario government to change this.



Read the Alliance's open letter <https://shorturl.at/jtxQW> to the
Provincial Minister of Municipal Affairs & Housing, Steve Clark, and
Premier Doug Ford.



Share with your networks that *#OttawaNeedsMore*



Ottawa deserves better.



People experiencing homelessness in our community deserve better.



*Together, we can change this.*
