Two federal expert reviews provided unanimous support in 2023 for rapidly scaling up safe supply, including compassion clubs.

When two Winnipeg encampments that had more than 30 people living in them were about to be cleared earlier this summer, outreach groups, government officials and housing facilitators sprang into action.
Moving at the speed of trust
Collaboration, compassion and a clear sense of purpose among non-profit agencies and government recently moved more than 30 people out of homeless encampments and into supportive housing

My favourite part of organizing events and festivals is all the prep and lead up work then just watching people come and enjoy the amazing work you were a part of building that feeling is the best that calm before it's open for everyone!!!

Manitobans have begun settling into 67 new social housing units announced Friday as part of the provincial government’s homelessness strategy.
