Upcoming Events
Carnegie Housing Action Lunch
Fridays at noon
@Carnegie Community Centre 3rd floor classroom
This is a weekly meeting hosted for residents of the DTES who are driven to fight for a compassionate, community-centred approach to ending houselessness in the DTES. We will talk about and plan actions to educate and agitate for changes in the housing system that prioritize good housing for those who are economically excluded in society, as well as identify emerging government policies that may interfere with that goal. If you have any questions, contact us via our email.
World Homeless Day: All-Parties Town Hall
What are our MLA candidates planning to do about homelessness?
Thursday October 10th: 11am-12:30pm @ The Carnegie Community Centre Theatre, located on the main floor
The provincial election is coming up on October 19th, and we have heard very little about what our representatives actually plan to do about housing for people who are homeless or precariously housed. At this classic Carnegie town hall, we’ll be joined by Joan Phillip - BCNDP, Dana-Lyn Mackenzie - BC Greens, Kimball Cariou - Communist Party, maybe a Conservative, and a special guest!
If you can make it, RSVP and let us know any questions you might have for them. To maximize our time together, we’ll be selecting questions ahead of time.
