About the Subcommittee
The Community Dialogue on Homelessness Subcommittee was formed in June 2016. The role of this Social Policy Advisory Committee subcommittee was to develop a platform for community dialogue on homelessness. The speakers’ series will provide a forum for sharing data and relevant information and an opportunity for community members to engage in respectful dialogue on each topic while hearing a range of perspectives.
