CLOSING REMARKS

About this event

Last March, the “Building Community – Saskatchewan Housing and Homelessness Conference” brought community members, industry professionals, and those with lived experience together to address the growing homelessness crisis in our province. It was an opportunity to connect, identify issues, and initiate solutions. This year, the conversation continues.


Join us March 6 & 7, 2024 at the Sheraton in Saskatoon for the Saskatchewan Housing and Homelessness Conference – “Addressing Systemic Barriers".


Building on last year’s momentum, the focus of the event is to dig deeper into systemic barriers and collaborative solutions. If you have lived experience or want to contribute as a community member or industry professional, join us to engage in meaningful conversation and workshops designed to address challenges and change. Your input is invaluable as we work together toward sustainable solutions.


SPONSORSHIP

To give government, service providers, and housing professionals the foundation needed to find solutions that will work in the immediate and have long-lasting effects, sponsorship to attend the event is being provided to those with lived experience and MN–S citizens who work in housing. If you are interested in applying for sponsorship fill out this application here. Deadline to apply for sponsorship is February 15th at 5:00 PM CST.
