leadership

"Our recent project working on the transportation needs of the homeless is just one example of the leadership role the York Region Alliance to End Homelessness has taken.  They were able to co-ordinate and facilitate the needs assessments, and focus groups.  As one agency this is something we would be hard pressed to find the time to do, but participating and giving information to one central organization made it all work."

"Without the work, leadership, and support of the York Region Alliance to End Homelessness it is difficult to say how the agencies like ours would be able to connect with each other.  As the Community Housing and Support Worker I have found this opportunity to meet other workers from other agencies very valuable and I have referred youth to many of the services that are offered as a result of hearing first hand what support is out there for them."
