Calgary’s Community Plan is a culmination of learnings from several sources: results from the 10-year plan to end homelessness, emerging research, Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) data, point-in-time counts, environmental indicators, program reviews, and extensive client and community consultation. The data from each source help us set direction as to where the priorities and related funding should be targeted by identifying gaps, highest priority needs, and trends in the sector.

Specifically, with the sunset of the 10-year plan, CHF conducted extensive community consultation which resulted in a legacy report (titled: Calgary’s 10 Year Plan Collective Impact Report) and the formation of the Together to Zero Strategic Directives.
