This is a report on three Planning Workshops that the Carnegie Community Action Project (CCAP) held with 44 low-income residents of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) neighbourhood in July and October 2009. Low-income residents make up about 70% of the total population in Vancouver’s DTES. The Planning Workshops were the fifth stage of CCAP’s consultation process to involve low-income residents in making decisions about the future of our community. (See Appendix A for an outline of the full community planning process). This report should be read in the context of CCAP’s two other reports on our consultation with DTES residents: Nothing about us without Us and Our Place and Our Words. Both are on CCAP’s website at www.ccapvancouver.wordpress.com
