One of the main goals of community housing is to provide more affordable homes for those in need and, ultimately, to help them keep those homes. But what happens when people struggle to maintain tenancy in the community housing sector? In today’s episode, Cynthia Belaskie and Robbie Brydon are joined by Dr. Damian Collins of the University of Alberta. Damian is involved in research with Community Housing Canada and recently published the article, “When We Do Evict Them, It’s a Last Resort”: Eviction Prevention in Social and Affordable Housing. He discusses various eviction prevention strategies and draws some comparisons between what’s at stake in the community housing sector versus the private sector when it comes to being evicted. He also breaks down six major challenges the community housing sector faces that his team's research will be tackling. Join their discussion as Damian explores the importance of housing not only for those in need but in the development of society at large.
