Demystifying Community Housing promises to be a great series providing insight on the value of community housing and forward direction that could be taken regarding Canada’s #housingcrisis
Today, we’re launching a new series of the Policy Options podcast: Demystifying Community Housing! This special collaborative series between the IRPP and the Urban Studies Program and the SFU School of Public Policy will highlight the work of the individuals who have spent their careers in the community and non-profit housing sectors and will consider how the sector can help to solve Canada’s ongoing housing crisis. In this first episode of the series, co-hosts Hanan Ali and Natasha Mhuriro sit down with three experts in the community housing sector: Rebecca Schiff, Dean of the Faculty of Human Health Sciences at UNBC - University of Northern British Columbia; Ray Sullivan, the Executive Director at the Canadian Housing and Renewal Association; and David Hulchanski, a Professor in the Faculty of Social Work and at the Department of Geography and Planning at the University of Toronto. Together, our hosts and their guests discuss what community housing means, who it serves — or should serve — and how to pave the path forward for resilient community housing. https://lnkd.in/gKS_9mKe
