As we end this year with positive news we want to honour the many friends we have lost this year and ensure we don't stop fighting for the needs of our service users. There is nothing more powerful than the voice of a community that cares !! #HamOnt #endoverdose #harmreduction

We thank @cityofhamilton @AndreaHorwath @CameronKroetsch and other council members for their recognition of this need and the push to get this done as soon as possible. They have also recognized that there is still much more work to be done as we move into the new year

We are forever grateful for your advocacy and true community engagement ❤️ Further to this the city has agreed to cover all the costs since the 24th. We recieved an incredible amount of donations during this period and felt it was important to be transparent

The @TheHubHamilton is overjoyed to announce that the @cityofhamilton has agreed to keep our centre open every night until March 31st regardless of cold alerts. This much needed support to our friends with no homes would not have been possible without all of you !

@ScrapFighter @_j_hompoth_ @bikehounds @cityofhamilton Jen has been operating without funding since 2020 and with her team she has done everything she could to support the unhoused folks of #HamOnt - it’s never been about the money, but the city needs to step up and address the issues poor policy making has created!

I do have to say that although this "winter warm up" plan wasn't perfect (specifically the rules for calling/cancelling a cold alert). This new council DID make a special provision to allow us to even see a warming centre and did it in short order.
