Title: Polling city's most vulnerable.
Authors: Emily Mathieu Toronto Star

Abstract: Mobility issues, battles with addiction, a lack of adequate funds and discrimination are just some of the barriers to housing identified by the guests of the Out of the Cold program as part of a new study by Dixon Hall Neighbourhood Services. Those personal insights into the struggles of guests using the volunteer-led overnight service - along with people who have moved through or are staying in the city's close to capacity emergency shelter system - come just as the winter cold relief program is winding down for another season.
