Imagine being homeless and every time you see a vacancy for an apartment, the landlord takes one look and says, “We’re full.” But this isn’t the Christmas story, it’s real life for so many Family members — especially the 30-per-cent of the Our Place community who identify as Aboriginal.

Recently,  Our Place Society were contacted by two Camosun College students interested in creating a short video on some of the programs and services that Our Place offers. They decided to highlight a relatively new program at Our Place with the arrival of our Aboriginal Housing Support workers.
