Stuck in a system in crisis, people experiencing homelessness are being pitched into even more danger. Preventing that is a shared responsibility; solutions must come from federal, provincial & municipal levels acting in concert with concentrated urgency. caeh.ca/call-to-action…

Inner City Health Associates supports universal access to care for everyone calling Canada home. Cuts to ON’s modestly funded uninsured program will ultimately cost the public more, weaken health system performance and harm the most vulnerable. For system health, support #Healthcare4all.
