World Homeless Day
October 10, 2021 All day

A day to understand our neighbours and fellow community members a little better. We’re all human and no person is immune to trauma. Housing is a basic need denied to many who suffer due to issues outside of their control.
This day and the others following it provide opportunities to help by responding to homelessness.
