The challenge of homelessness in Canada is as diverse as it is pressing. "Homelessness in Canada: A Data-Informed Response" is a focused webinar that brings to light the role of data in understanding and addressing homelessness from coast to coast.

In this webinar, we will explore:

  • National Overview: We'll provide a comprehensive look at the homelessness trends across Canada, with a spotlight on the rise of encampments and the varying needs of affected demographics.

  • Data as a Guide: Learn how Canadian cities are harnessing data analytics to navigate the complexities of homelessness and to inform policy and program development.

  • Strategic Applications: Discover the ways in which data-driven insights are being translated into precise planning and resource allocation to tackle homelessness effectively.

  • AI in Action: See how predictive modeling and AI are being employed to anticipate and mitigate the factors contributing to homelessness, particularly in urban settings.

  • Collaborative Efforts: We'll highlight the significance of cross-sector collaboration in data sharing and strategy development, showcasing how Canadian entities are working together for a common cause.

  • Local Examples: Observe examples from specific Canadian cities that are utilizing these data-driven methods to understand and combat their unique homelessness challenges.

This webinar is a call to action for policymakers, urban planners, community leaders, and social service providers to leverage data in the fight against homelessness. Engage with us for a dialogue that not only presents the problems but also focuses on actionable data-informed solutions tailored to the Canadian landscape.
