Peer Street Outreach for People Living Homeless

Experience shows that peer support is extremely successful. I’m going to start off with a new pilot program in St. Catharines called Welcoming Streets. It’s a partnership between Reach Niagara and Positive Living Niagara (POS), supported by Niagara Region and St. Catharines. Talia storm leads the Streetworks Program at POS and will co-direct the new porgram.

I’ll also chat with Quest Community Health Centre executive director Nancy Garner about the Niagara HELPS program that puts peer Navigators in niagara Hospitals.
