Grand Prairie Point-in-Time Report 2022

On September 26th and 27th, 2022, Grande Prairie participated in its bi-annual Point in Time (PiT) Count to capture information on the City’s current homeless population. Initiatives like the PiT Count provide important data to inform policy decisions, planning, and the implementation of the 2021–23 Homelessness Strategy for Grande Prairie. The PiT Count is a coordinated effort to illustrate the state of homelessness both in Alberta and Canada, as it is conducted in partnership with Infrastructure Canada (formerly, “Employment and Social Development Canada”) and the 7 Cities on Housing and Homelessness. The 7 Cities (Calgary, Grande Prairie, Lethbridge, Edmonton, Medicine Hat, Red Deer, and Wood Buffalo) have been working together for over two decades with a common vision to end homelessness in Alberta.
