Today is the first day of the Community Dialogue Sessions: housing the homeless, that Headlines is hosting. These sessions will cover the "nuts and bolts" of housing in Metro Vancouver, and are made up of moderated panel discussions.
Today's topic is
"Location, location, location: is it viable to create shelters and/or housing in the communities in which homeless people are residing? If so, how? If not, why?"
Panelists today are
Shirley Chan, Executive Director, Building Opportunites with Business
Dr. Kerry Jang, Councillor, City of Vancouver and Professor, Department of Psychiatry, UBC
and
