Interview with Ms. Joan Kingston, President of the Board of Directors of the Fredericton Community Action Group on Homelessness, and the co-Nurse Manager of the Fredericton Downtown Community Health Centre (CHC). In this episode we focus on the history of the CHC and discuss the much-needed services it provides to the people who live in poverty in Fredericton.
The final few minutes of this episode deal with the new definition of homelessness developed by the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness (COH). The COH wants to improve the understanding, measurement and responses to homelessness in Canada by providing a common ‘language” for addressing this complex problem.
