About this webinar:

As growing numbers of Albertans and Canadians experience strain of the housing and affordability crisis, social workers role in supporting individuals, families and communities is more important than ever.

This webinar will provide an overview of the housing crisis from a systems and policy perspective, equipping participants with an understanding of how historical and contemporary policy decisions influence the current state of affordable housing, from a non-market and market perspective.

Topics covered will include:

The housing continuum
Differing definitions of affordable housing
Government strategies and policy
Intersecting policy
Current challenges for housing providers

Please note this webinar aims to equip participants with a deeper understanding of the underlying factors influencing the housing crisis, and is not intended to serve as an overview of housing options available for clients.
