Government says The Action Team, a community-led group aiming to bring supports to those experiencing homelessness in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, is making progress.
John Abbott, the minister responsible for the Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation, says a coordinated and collaborative approach has been adopted to address housing, health and other supportive services for individuals experiencing homelessness. He says the provincial government is proud to work alongside Indigenous and community partners to meet and overcome these challenges.
The Action Team, established in May of last year, consists of Indigenous governments and organizations, community partners, police and regional health authorities.
