Manitoba government moves first encampment resident into home as part of project
"The province has promised to eliminate chronic homelessness — people who are unhoused for several months or more — in the next seven years. A major part of its plan is to remove the estimated 700 people living in encampments.
Part of the plan, announced last month, includes buying apartment buildings so people living in encampments have immediate access to secure housing.
Several buildings are being bought and renovated, and the province aims to partner with municipalities and agencies to offer support services, such as addiction treatment. "
