Quoting Heather Smith Fowler <[log in to unmask]>:

> Hi Rita. I second that suggestion - Michael Shapcott is certainly one of the
> key go-to people on homelessness & housing in Canada. You will also want to
> look at the work of Dr. Stephen Hwang at St Michael's Hospital in TO, David
> Hulchanski at UofT, Tim Aubry at the University of Ottawa, and Geoff Nelson
> at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo. All have done excellent work re:
> community mental health, housing & homelessness.
>
>
>
> Other resources include the Canadian Housing & Renewal Association, CMHC, and
> the book, Homeless: Policies, Strategies, and Lives on the Street, by Gerald
> Daly. While it was published in 1996, it is still an excellent comparative
> look at policies in Canada, the US and Britain.
