Henry Eastabrook
Outreach/Advocate Worker
For sixteen years Henry Eastabrook has been serving people at the intersection of poverty, homelessness and illegal drug use; the last ten of those years as the Outreach-Advocate Worker at London InterCommunity Health Centre. For seven years Henry was a member of the London Homeless Coalition Steering Committee and for six years he was on the board of the Advocacy Centre for Tenants Ontario (ACTO), serving as its chair for two years. Henry is an ardent harm reductionist who firmly believes that the so-called 'War on Drugs' has been and always will be useless for all humans, except the handful of corporate entities who profit from the suffering of the millions of victims of that 'war'. As a sixteen year advocate for people who experience homelessness Henry is very aware that the root cause of homelessness is poverty. Henry urges all other advocates to understand that regardless of other interventions, homelessness will never be eradicated without first eradicating poverty. Henry is a husband, father and grandfather.
