‘More work to be done’: Homelessness a major issue in Saskatchewan this year

‘More work to be done’: Homelessness a major issue in Saskatchewan this year

Global News
Wednesday, December 27, 2023 6:54 PM GMT

As the year is almost over, here's a look at Saskatchewan's homelessness situation in Regina and Saskatoon and what is being done to help those who have nowhere to go.

More than 1,000 people in Saskatchewan have nowhere to call home, according to the latest “point-in-time” homeless counts for the province’s two biggest cities.

In Regina, frustration surrounding homelessness was at an all-time high this year.

It came to a boiling point when an encampment in front of city hall was torn down this summer.

The camp stood for just over five weeks and was the site of 80 tents, most of them housing multiple people.

Regina Fire and Protective Services (RFPS) made the call to dismantle the camp.

It sparked frustration among advocates who work closely with the community.

Houselessness advocate Shiloh Stevenson says there are a lot of contributing factors that have been identified.

“We can speak to the intergenerational traumas, which lead to addiction and unhealthy lifestyles, and that factoring into people’s physical health, mental health,” he said. “So, we have poor mental health or lifestyle choices like high-risk lifestyles, and they all relay back to our intergenerational traumas.”
