How Canada Can Solve Homelessness 

Everyone deserves a safe place to call home. Amid the devastating reality in Canada today, there are communities that show progress is possible. What they have in common is their approach.

CAEH partners with communities across Canada to prevent and reduce homelessness through our Model for Ending Homelessness. This dynamic, community-led operating system is founded on three pillars that work together to make homelessness rare, brief, and for those it happens to, unlikely to happen again.

Everyone is Known

The journey home begins when every person is known by name, and each person is seen clearly.

Collective Action

Communities have a coordinated system that connects people to the homes and support they need.

Reduction through improvement

Communities use data to adapt with speed and precision for the people they serve, sharpening their response with every step forward.

Recognizing that the crisis is too big for any one community or government to solve alone, we also lead a national movement to advocate for the funding, affordable housing, and policies needed to get the job done.
