Ottawa, Ontario, September 9, 2025 - The Assembly of First Nations has received a federal investment of $225,000 to support research on homelessness among First Nations Veterans across Ottawa.
The Assembly of First Nations will explore the unique challenges contributing to homelessness among First Nations Veterans, including factors like enfranchisement and forced migration from their communities. The research aims to identify gaps in current supports and provide recommendations on how to improve the way information about services is communicated.
The findings from this research will be shared with governments, service providers, and Indigenous partners to help develop better, more timely supports that meet the needs of First Nations Veterans experiencing homelessness.
