About Huron Homelessness Initiative

United Way Perth-Huron's Goderich and Area Community Committee invites you to walk with us to help local individuals experiencing homelessness, hurt and hunger in Goderich and area.


Walk to support the Huron Homelessness Initiative in Goderich; including programs such as shelter for women, children and youth, emergency shelter during the cold months, transitional housing for men and housing support.


Homelessness isn’t just about sleeping on the streets. It affects almost every aspect of life including family well-being, employment and physical and mental health. Eighty per cent of homelessness is hidden or unreported.
