Community Conversations

The EYET Community Conversation seeks to bring housing professionals and service providers across the sector together to engage, to collaborate, build community, and to share skills and strategies for facing the unique challenges that this pandemic has presented. 

These Community Conversations focus on specific, relevant, and timely housing and homelessness related topics, and invite housing professionals, managers, administrators, and service users together to work collaboratively on identifying needs, discussing strategies for meeting those needs, and sharing skills and ideas that have worked well. 

Our Community Conversations are solutions-oriented, and facilitated by EYET staff and guest presenters. The ideas shared in our working groups are captured and compiled in this space for the benefit of the sector. Check the materials and resources that we have made available under each Community Conversation topic, shared by housing professionals from across Toronto.
