New Brunswick’s 2nd Provincial Report Card on Homelessness

For people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in New Brunswick, the 2009 event that perhaps holds the most promise is the province’s Poverty Reduction Initiative. Poverty is a major contributor to homelessness, and New Brunswickers had a chance to voice their views about how it should be reduced or eliminated. The strategy – Overcoming Poverty Together: The NB Economic and Social Inclusion Plan – was released following the Final Forum in Saint John in November.
