A week after announcing plans to partner with 12 Neighbors Inc. for the construction of a pair of Neighbourly Homes communities in Saint John, N.B., the city is hosting a community information session.
The two-hour session will offer residents a chance to ask questions of city staff and over 14 other community groups and agencies that support the city's homeless population.
Agencies expected to be present include 12 Neighbors Inc., Saint John Police, Fresh Start Services, Horizon Health and the Human Development Council.
City representatives said they will explain the city's 'Housing for All' strategy during the session, including 'Green Zone' designations and their part in creating opportunities for full-time housing. They said they will also explore the Neighbourly Homes model in greater detail.
The session will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the multipurpose room of the Loch Lomond Villa. It is open to all members of the public.
