High-Level Summary: The city council meeting focused primarily on assessing and further developing Toronto's Supportive Housing strategy to address homelessness and ensure equitable access to housing. Key participants included Matt, from Toronto Shelter and Support Services, who presented the supportive housing evaluation strategy, and Elizabeth, who facilitated the meeting. The meeting emphasized a coordinated access system and a human rights-based focus, involving community partnerships at all levels of governance.

Important Topics Discussed:

1. Supportive Housing Strategy: The meeting discussed the strategy to expand supportive housing in Toronto, aiming to integrate a coordinated access system to equitably prioritize those with chronic homelessness. Matt highlighted that this would use "standardized assessment tools" to match residents with suitable housing options.

2. Evaluation and Human Rights Focus: The discussion stressed the importance of using a "human rights-based approach," particularly for tenant outcomes and housing support services. Matt emphasized that the evaluation should be "trauma-informed and culturally responsive," overseen by the nonprofit Blueprint.

3. Community Engagement and Integration: Emphasis was placed on how supportive housing programs tie into local community services, suggesting strengthened ties as a means of improving homeless support systems. The councillor contributed by supporting engagement with networks that assist vulnerable populations, such as victims of gender-based violence.

4. Public Consultation: The meeting underscored the need for public engagement, particularly with advisory committees such as Accessibility and LGBTQ to ensure an intersectional approach. The councillor emphasized promoting this within networks for comprehensive consultative support.

5. Continued Efforts and Recommendations: The meeting called for ongoing efforts toward achieving the target of 18,000 supportive homes by 2030. This could involve multi-level government recommendations to enhance and expand housing programs in the city.

Opportunities for Public Input: The meeting invited input as part of planned consultations during the spring, particularly concerning data collection and community engagement strategies within the supportive housing system.

Motions Passed, Rejected, or Deferred:
