For more on the truth of the matter, go to the Homeless Hub to see CWP’s review of human rights ‘moments and misses’ this year, from a housing perspective. Here is a short blurb from the blog by our ED, Leilani Farha:
“Looking to the year ahead it’s unimaginable that things could get any worse.

Each of these events is an attempt to render invisible and inaudible the most disadvantaged groups in Canada.”
