This was what it looked like at a respite centre set up in All Saints Church on Dundas St. E. during last week’s record cold snap. “All levels of government ought to be working collaboratively to solve the homelessness issue.”The organization has a third respite centre on 21 Park Rd. He is currently at the Streets to Homes Assessment and Referral Centre, located on Peter St., transitional housing that helps people find a permanent place to live. “This winter has stretched resources across the city,” said Councillor Lucy Troisi, whose ward includes the two Margaret’s sites at Dundas and Sherbourne Sts. “Low-barrier services like winter respite centres are a piece of the puzzle in an emergency but ultimately, we know that we have a lack of affordable housing in Toronto.” Troisi said.
