You Can't Really Call This Home: Perspectives on Service Delivery from Salvation Army Shelter Users and Service Providers
The
Salvation Army is one of the leading organizations to provide services
for those experiencing homelessness in Canada, which is estimated to be
from 200,000 to 300,000 people. A recent study entitled You Can't Really Call this Home: Perspectives on Service Delivery from Salvation Army Shelter Users and Service Providers was produced from research conducted in Salvation Army shelters across
Canada, instituted when Commissioner M. Christine MacMillan (Director
of the ISJC) was the Territorial Commander of the Canada and Bermuda
Territory. This report helps service providers gain a better
understanding of the key issues affecting those assisted by Salvation
Army shelters and provides insight into the complex problems faced by
homeless persons as well the experiences of homelessness itself.
