Imagine maintaining your health without stable housing. Basic needs like nutrition, protection from the elements, and proper sleep are daily challenges for the homeless. In 2023, nearly 30,000 homeless Canadians were hospitalized, spending an average of 15 days in the hospital—almost double the 8-day stay for those with stable housing. The economic cost of homelessness impacts us all. It's time for change. #WeNeedAffordableHousing #Advocate #AliveHouse #Timeforchange #healthcare #Worktogether
