Speaking Truths on Homelessness


            A key event from 2024 was the Speaking Truths on Homelessness,
            a consultation and engagement initiative that involved partners from
            the community, institutional, economic, academic and civic sectors.
            In the fall, Centraide launched the “Projet cohabitation” to bring people
            together to reflect on social cohabitation issues in Montreal.
            The Centraide team submitted a brief in collaboration with partner
            agencies to the Office de consultation publique de Montréal, moderated
            a panel on homelessness at the conference of the Association de
            planification fiscale et financière conference, and sat on the advisory
            committee for the 2025 National Conference on Ending Homelessness.
            Centraide was also politically active in the area of homelessness
            issues and, with the help of Quebec’s Centraide network, will allocate
            a government emergency fund to community agencies in this sector
            starting in spring 2025.                                                 VIEW THE MEMOIR
