Fire Pit has a comfortable, friendly, family feel to it. More funding, cheaper rent. I just want a home. More money for welfare. Something like BC housing, not so much structure. City Bus houses, pet friendly, pick something you can be responsible for. Better housing, low income housing. In Kamloops they have the ASK society, where people can do drugs or whatever they want. But the shelter here is better, you can come in and sit down. "You can't even get a coffee there" that says it all. They boot you out at 7AM. Everyone's entitled to a certain amount of rent, why not build something that is affordable. 56
Prince George Homeless Count Report 2010 More shelter beds. Something to do on Sundays. Need more. More shelters and stuff. Jobwave has been useless, slow - "I could have been working 3 months ago if they got the tickets sorted out." "I want to work, I've been working my whole life why stop now." Would like to have medicine delivered. All services in PG are adequate. Support is good right now. Feels comfortable here at ASAP, workers understand where people are coming from - give you space, treat you like family. You could say I've stayed with family. Got it better than anywhere else. A lot of people’s problems is low income. Good services, better than anywhere else so you can go to different places to eat. Low Income Housing. More money for SS. Lower rent. Low cost housing for single people and one with kids. Don't make it hard to find a place when being released from jail. More welfare. 120-150 people served every Sunday night at St. Michaels.

P.G. is one of the best communities. Where else can you eat like this for free and get clothes for free? There are a lot of food and clothes services in PG, the big issue is employment. More options for single people who are having trouble making an income. Not enough standardized housing for people. Lots of red tape; people have to meet certain criteria to access housing - creates long waiting lists and discourages people from pursuing these spots. Openness is key. Affordability. We have wicked resources here. Cut bus passes for the homeless and poor. Structure 2) Expectations and deadlines 3) Extensions (justified) 4) Alternative structure for men/women. I need some furniture. House for broken into they took all the beds, table, chairs, and I have a gran. 57
