Drs. Geoffrey Nelson and Tim Aubry, co-chairs of the Ontario Housing First Regional Network Community of Interest, submitted a letter to the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, in support of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness’ proposal for a Homelessness Prevention and Housing Benefit.
The proposed Housing Benefit is supported by scientific research, which shows that rental assistance can both help people experiencing chronic homelessness to become housed and prevent homelessness for those who are at risk.
