What a difference a year makes for the homeless in Kelowna | iNFOnews | Thompson-Okanagan s News Source

That doesn’t mean they’ve gone away or been forgotten by people who work every day trying to get them housed. For the most part, those efforts have succeeded this winter. “We still have a couple of dozen folk sleeping outside at the moment,” Stephanie Ball, the executive director of the Central Okanagan Journey Home Society, told iNFOnews.ca. “We’re working with B.C. Housing and the city to make sure everyone has somewhere to shelter this winter.”
