Transforming The Experience and Perception of Homelessness

United Voices WRC by United Way Waterloo Region Communities

Episode notes

In this episode, we’re joined by Jennifer Scott and Larissa Schneider from House of Friendship to talk about homelessness, supportive housing, and the power of community. We’ll explore how their ShelterCare model is changing the way Waterloo Region supports people experiencing homelessness, why 24/7 wraparound care matters, and how initiatives like Friendship Village are creating long-term impact. Whether you care about social justice, want to get involved, or just want to understand what real change looks like—this conversation is for you.
