Halifax’s housing crisis didn’t just happen—it was built, or not built... Dal, SMU & MSVU have 31,841 students but only 4,200 beds (13%). About 27.6k are pushed into private rentals. Without that demand, vacancy could rise from 2.1% → ~20%. It's time for universities to act. #Halifax #Housing

Helping people facing homelessness means being versatile, responsive, and willing to rewrite the rules. You can’t change lives if you're trapped in red tape. Systems need to bend, not break people.

Some wounds don’t bleed!
Many veterans face invisible battles long after their service ends.
It’s not enough to fund the mission—we must fund the healing.

We can't celebrate soldiers in uniform and forget them when the war ends.
Service doesn’t end when the mission does—neither should our support. 🎖️

🙏 Repost to thank mental health heroes! 🙏
For 21 years, I’ve seen the toll of homelessness. Leading a veterans homelessness project has been harder than anything I faced in the military. Some won’t make it—but mental health professionals fight for them every day. Their strength brings hope. #Heros

🌊 In 2023, Halifax faced a bitter winter. The city opened a rink shelter, gathered volunteers, and leased vehicles—yet no one arrived. Why? Encampments offered freedom and community, free from rigid rules. Without real consultation, the plan froze and ultimately failed. Consult them first!! 🌊

Being adopted shaped my journey, and I wanted to give back. I donated my time to be part of Adopted, a film that explores the struggles of adoption for adults and children. If you've faced similar challenges, this movie may resonate with you! www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VCY... #Adoption #AdoptedMovie"

The cause of homelessness is not simply, not having a home. It’s unaddressed trauma, untreated mental health struggles, and systemic barriers that keep people trapped. To truly end homelessness, we must go beyond shelter, we must heal, support, and empower people at the root of their struggles.

Did you know that in Nova Scotia, a single mother with two children making just $1,700 gross per month is considered too wealthy to qualify for government-funded legal aid? How is this justice?
