Ms. Thompson met with Mr. Ramsay (in person) as a follow-up to their original meeting (virtual) on 06-20-2020. Much of the discussion focused on the current housing challenges, the impact of COVID-19, government funding, youth aging out of care, etc. The conversation later transitioned to a request for funding by Covenant House Vancouver to aid with their operating dollars for their new buildings (set to be completed in 2022). Ms. Thompson left Mr. Ramsay with a written proposal which he committed to reviewing and providing feedback on. Note: This request for funding is focused on operating dollars that would ensure housing and services for homeless youth who make-up approximately 10% of the homeless population.
