It's My City Too! a Study of the Housing Needs of Richmond’s Most Vulnerable Citizens
Description:
Highlights - The Analysis:
The majority of people who become homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless must leave Richmond to find necessary housing, income and support services. • The men's shelter - Richmond House - and the women's transition house - Nova House - have uncertain tenure and are limited in terms of their capacity to help local people. Last year, 70 men were turned away from Richmond House; during the last nine months, 195 women and children have been turned away from Nova House. Additionally, these facilities are not accessible to people with mobility changes. (excerpt from the document)
