Police, Alpha House, others launch East Village hub intended to support 'evolving social needs'
CBC NewsA new hub in Calgary's East Village neighbourhood will see police and other city partners collaborating 24/7 inside the basement of the St. Louis Hotel." that opened late last year. The East Village hub is a three-year pilot project funded by the Calgary Municipal Land Corporation and the City of Calgary.
Ward 7 Coun. Terry Wong said the safety hub was a 'welcomed addition' to his ward and will strengthen the community's ability to respond to the needs of vulnerable Calgarians. Chaz Smith, the founder and CEO of BeTheChangeYYC, a street outreach group that connects people with housing programs and shelters, said it made sense to create a "multi-pronged" approach to issues that are tied to mental health and addictions.
