Residents in the Ritchie and Old Strathcona neighbourhoods are again trying to prevent Boyle Street Community Services from opening an overdose prevention site on 81st Avenue and 101st Street.
Boyle Street Community Services is hoping a second attempt to get a permit for an overdose prevention site in West Ritchie will be a win when the agency appears before an appeal board later this month.
Kora-lea Vidal posted a TikTok video donating winter gear to a homeless Edmonton man in 2021 that went viral. She uses social media as part of her outreach work in the downtown core.
