By: Homeless people in York Region, north of Toronto, are suffering both physically and mentally. Those are the findings of a new needs assessment of homeless people from the York Region Alliance to End Homelessness. In addition to setting out details of the health needs of homeless people, the YRAEH assessment sets out ten practical recommendations. Three years ago, the Wellesley Institute supported Street Health in its assessment of the health status of homeless people in Toronto called The Street Health Report 2007.
