In this episode of the podcast, CHATS CEO Christina Bisanz talks to Michael Braithwaite from Blue Door. Over 80,000 people are facing homelessness across our province, and this number could amount to 300,000 within the next ten years if support and plans are not put into place to address the need for affordable community housing. Social interaction in the community is important for seniors as well as everyone. By organizations joining to work together, we can put the York Region Homeless Strategy to the top of the priority list.
Michael Braithwaite has over 32 years of experience creating innovative solutions to better support vulnerable people. Michael joined Blue Door in March of 2019 as
CEO and previously worked at Raising the Roof and 360kids in York Region. Michael is a Board Member of the Canadian Housing and Renewal Association, as well as a Board Member of Waterfront Toronto.
