Hidden Homeless - Edmonton's Invisible Crisis

For every one homeless person on the street, there are three who are Hidden Homeless. The Hidden Homeless can be found couch surfing with family, friends and often strangers. They can also be found filling hospital beds, fleeing domestic violence in motel rooms, attending treatment programs or serving a jail sentence.
As more Indigenous people migrate to Edmonton, the pressure to house them increases. Today, there is an entire community of homeless people who are largely invisible to the public eye and government services.
Join one of Edmonton’s leading Aboriginal agencies, Native Counselling Services of Alberta, as they explore an issue rooted in Historic Trauma with multiple pathways in and few options out.
