Toronto's homeless shelters are bursting at the seams.
In a city that drips with wealth, homeless people are left to die on the streets or face conditions of brutal overcrowding that denies them basic dignity and jeopardizes their health.
All summer long shelters have been packed, and now as head into winter, there is a real risk that even survival spaces like the Warming Centres and volunteer-run Out of the Cold programs won't be able handle the overflow.
The City must stop cutting shelter beds in the central core, and open new spaces now if we are to avoid tragedies this winter.
You've seen the film that documents the crisis (https://youtu.be/FnfNstiArQo), now join us in the streets to make sure this winter isn't a deadly one for those the City is abandoning out in the cold.
