From Crisis to Connection: Ending Homelessness in Winnipeg

 

The COVID-19 pandemic and the winter’s frigid, -40℃ weather increased the visibility of Winnipeg’s homelessness crisis like never before.

We can’t lose sight of the need to end homelessness even though the coldest nights of the year are over.

Why does homelessness exist in our city?

What factors contribute to this crisis, and who is responding to it?

How can Winnipeggers take action to end homelessness, once and for all?

For answers to these questions (and more!), zoom in on Wednesday, April 7 at 7pm for this 1-hour discussion.

Speakers will include:

Elder Charlotte Nolin
Betty Edel, End Homelessness Winnipeg
Adrienne Dudek, Glenn Johnson, & Jacob Kaufman, Main Street Project
Angelina Pelletier, Ndinawe
Moderated by Kirsten Bernas

Organized in collaboration by:

Kíkininaw Óma Strategy to Support Unsheltered Winnipeggers
