In partnership with the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness (CAEH), End Homelessness St. John’s (EHSJ) and EmpowerNL have launched Accessible Pathways to Housing, which aims to reduce chronic homelessness in St. John’s for people living with Disabilities.

On Tuesday afternoon EmpowerNL was delighted to host the announcement of Accessible Pathways to Housing and are excited that EmpowerNL’s Advocacy Services have a Housing Accommodations Coordinator working on this project.

Special thanks to Mr. Tom Osborne, MP for Cape Spear, along with Chantal Perry, Improvement Advisor with the CAEH, Doug Pawson, Executive Director of EHSJ and our own Executive Director Kathy Hawkins for speaking at today’s announcement.
