There are many faces of homelessness...

We at Homeward Trust are committed to helping open doors,
and rebuilding hope.  Together we will...

  • Determine the needs and priorities of the community with respect to the continuum of housing, support services and other needs, including identifying the gaps in housing and developing a Community Plan to reflect community needs.
  • Consolidate and leverage public, not-for-profit and private sector funding for housing initiatives in Edmonton to meet the highest priority needs identified in the Community Plan.
  • Implement a mechanism to allocate funds on a transparent basis to priorities set out in the Community Plan, including funding for emergency, transitional and long-term supportive housing units, as well as support service needs.
  • Be responsible for monitoring and evaluating all funded projects and demonstrating accountability to the funders.
  • Build and promote community awareness around housing and homelessness issues.
  • Fund formal research projects and gather information regarding housing and homelessness issues and best practices.
  • Conduct consultation activities with a broad range of stakeholder groups to understand community needs, funding priorities, build community capacity and assess the impact of funded projects.
  • Engage the Aboriginal community to ensure strong representation and a more effective engagement model.
