While this project has been incredibly successful (seeing an 83% reduction in emergency and institutional service use, such as, police, ambulance, hospital, justice system interventions, etc… As of 2022, we offer 59 affordable housing units and operate Low Barrier Shelter which provides 27 beds to our Homeless.
