HI all,
I am one of a thousand daily listeners to this list and have been for many
years. I have been involved in health promotion, anti poverty work and
human rights in housing work, most recently managing eviction prevention for
The Centre for Equality Rights in Accommodation. I have personal experience
of being on welfare, facing eviction and homelessness. I also have personal
experience of working with people on line as a facilitator of a list serve
for the Workfare Watch Project. Because my list is made up of people
working front-line and people living with the fall out of welfare reform it
can get very difficult at times. I demand that we have respect for each
others work and that we work towards solutions.
I think that is what we need on this list- practical solutions, stories of
success, sharing of our struggles, celebrations of our successes no mater
how small they seem.
With my work in trying to prevent evictions for the 4000 + households in the
City of Ottawa not a week goes by that I do not talk to a health
professional that is working with a client(or who works with regularly) a
client who is facing a housing crisis.
The profession is only too aware of the impact of the social and economic
inequality as a detriments of health, they are in the trenches everyday.
And I think everyone in this province is close to the breaking point of not
being able to absorb the misery they see on a daily basis.
Personally I find it difficult to sleep at night, to go home to a relatively
secure home and eat my choice of healthy food. I know I am not alone.
So, in closely, lets find our way together in a positive way, lets share our
struggles, lets respect each others work and commitment to make change.
Thanks for allowing me to rant,
Sherrie Tingley
