As housing insecurity continues to rise, the challenges faced by Windsor’s most vulnerable residents are becoming increasingly urgent. Homelessness is a multifaceted issue that impacts individuals and families, as well as the broader community. Addressing it requires collaboration, compassion, and innovative thinking.

Join us for Unhoused Downtown: Addressing Homelessness Together, an open and engaging forum that invites residents, community leaders, and local organizations to come together in meaningful conversation. This community conversation is organized by the Downtown Mission.
