NEHA – Claim Your Right to Housing!
Homelessness among women and gender-diverse people in Canada has been declared a national human rights crisis.
Learn more about Canada’s first-ever human rights-based review panel on Canada’s failure to eliminate homelessness for women and gender-diverse people.
The human rights review panel known as Neha is examining the right to safe, adequate and affordable housing for women, Two Spirit, Trans, and gender-diverse people, and the government’s duty to uphold this right.
