Description
This policy framework was requested by the Greater Victoria Coalition to End Homelessness to guide its
work in implementing a housing first strategy and the necessary supports. The Coalition required a relevant
and realistic regional harm reduction action plan to complement the Coalition‘s housing and prevention plans
that takes into account existing strategies, responds to real needs in the community and is based on the
evidence for best practices.The recommendations and views expressed in this report are those of the authors
and do not necessarily reflect the position of the Coalition.
