Please join us for the release of the Street Health Report 2007.

The Street Health Report 2007 presents the findings of a survey of 368  
homeless adults in Toronto on their health and access to health care.   
This study was conducted in the winter of 2006/2007 by Street Health,  
a community-based health care organization working with homeless and  
under-housed people in downtown Toronto.

The report reveals a picture of homelessness in Toronto that demands  
immediate action.  It also outlines a series of recommendations to  
improve the health of homeless people and to ultimately end  
homelessness.

As we release our report, the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) will  
launch Street Health Stories, a collection of portraits and  
audio-recordings of the stories of eight survey participants.

Report release and exhibit opening:
Wednesday, September 19th at 10:00 a.m.

Wheelchair accessible at south entrance to Holy Trinity

Street Health Stories exhibit hours: 11:00 am - 3:00 pm

The report release is a press conference and public event that will  
feature a short presentation of the report highlights moderated by Dr.  
Stephen Hwang of the Centre for Research on Inner City Health at St  
Michael?s Hospital and an opportunity to see and hear the Street  
Health Stories exhibit.

This study was conducted by Street Health in partnership with the  
Wellesley Institute. Funding for this study was provided by United Way  
of Greater Toronto, Wellesley Institute and Metcalf Foundation.
