Homeless Outreach Program

The Homeless Outreach Program, active in approximately 50 communities in B.C., funds outreach workers, with local community and health organizations to help people who have been living on the street find stable housing. It addresses a client’s immediate physical and safety needs, such as food and warm clothing and connects them with income assistance and social and health services.

The Homeless Outreach Program in B.C. also provides links to other support services such as life skills training, personal health, financial management, and crisis intervention. Over 7,000 British Columbians have been housed since 2006 with the assistance of the program, including 1,900 in 2008.
