I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser Midnights become my afternoons When my depression works the graveyard shift All of the people I’ve ghosted stand there in the room

  • Summary:

    The New Westminster City Council has approved a two-year pilot project to address the intertwined challenges of homelessness, mental health, and substance use. The project aims to provide immediate support while transitioning responsibility to higher levels of government in the long term. It involves three inter-departmental staff teams: a Crisis Response Team, an Operations Support Team, and a Policy Development and Advocacy Team. Community engagement and the creation of working groups with diverse representation will be a key part of the project. Goals include improving relations with provincial bodies, establishing a 24/7 shelter, a health connect and resource center, and supportive housing development. The city will collaborate with various organizations and authorities to achieve these objectives.
