Alberta Counsel – Aileen Burke Second Part of Mini-series on Homelessness and Affordable Housing 2021

Alberta Counsel – Aileen Burke writes the second part of our mini-series on homelessness and affordable housing. This article is the second in The NEWS’ first ever mini-series. This article will focus on social housing policy in Alberta, prior to the adoption of the Housing First philosophy. The further along in the series we go, the less academic these articles will become. However, it is my firm belief that, in order to have a more fulsome picture of responses to homelessness, some historical research is of benefit. Finally, of note, should a reader happen to miss one article, while each article will be connected, they are meant to also work as standalones Also read part one if you missed it.
