Write to my government

As part of our effort to amplify the advocacy for the eradication of homelessness and poverty, we will continue to write and urge the government at all levels to be more concerned about the well-being of the people at this trying time. We urge the government to respond immediately to the housing and homelessness crisis in our communities. We also encourage individuals and groups within various communities to join the advocacy by writing to the MPP about the homelessness issues being experienced in their communities. You can write to your MPP or government official when you, or people living in your area, are faced with the problem of homelessness. The MPP represents all the people in their communities, whether they vote for them or not.
