Reaching Home Community Homelessness Report: Results

Reaching Home: Canada’s Homelessness Strategy is a federal program that provides funding directly to communities to help them address local homelessness priorities using a more systems-based and data-driven approach. This approach was adopted in recognition that preventing and reducing homelessness requires not only access to safe and adequate housing, but also a high degree of coordination across funders and community organizations, as well as meaningful collaboration between Indigenous and non-Indigenous partners.

This e-course was developed to highlight results from the Reaching Home Community Homelessness Reports (CHR).

What is the CHR?

The CHR is an annual Reaching Home reporting deliverable that supports communities to prevent and reduce homelessness using a more coordinated, systems-based and data-driven response. The CHR is designed to support local discussions and decision-making, with a focus on the full picture of homelessness at the community level and the collective efforts of service providers working across the homeless-serving system to address it.

For more information on the CHR, who is required to complete it, as well as the reporting tools available for the CHR, please visit the Reaching Home Community Homelessness Report: Reporting Tools e-course.

2019-21 CHR Results

Although communities are usually required to complete a CHR annually, due to the impact of COVID-19, the first CHR reporting cycle includes results from the first two years of Reaching Home (2019-20 & 2020-21). The first reporting period covers April 2019 through March 2021.

Communications and documents that highlight results from the 2019-21 CHR reporting cycle:

1. Monthly Reaching Home Newsletter articles:

2. Presentation given to Provincial and Territorial partners at the Federal, Provincial, Territorial (FPT) Open Forum (September 2022)

CHR Summaries

As identified in the Reaching Home Directives, Community Entities are required to make a summary of their CHR results publicly available. This section provides a link to each Community Entity’s CHR Summary.

Note: INFC is currently working with all communities who’s CHR is pending publication, and links will be added as soon as they become available.
