What role does social housing play in building and sustaining local communities? For residents in the Downtown Eastside, how might housing provide a starting point for citizens to regain a sense of social inclusion?

Our presenters will speak about the value of establishing innovative programs and tenant associations in social housing complexes throughout the region, and will share their first-hand experiences with successful projects at the Somerset Gardens complex in Surrey and through the PHS Community Services Society in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
