The Canadian Federation of University Women (CFUW) kept the focus on homelessness at its September general meeting, inviting City of Prince Albert Community Safety and Well-Being (CSWB) Manager Anna Dinsdale to explain how the city is working to tackle complex social challenges.

CFUW president Barb Gustafson says the issue remains top of mind for members a year after the club last hosted a speaker on the topic.

“It is somewhat disheartening to think that it was a year ago that we had Donna Brooks from the YWCA come and speak to us, and the hope was that there would be a resolution,” Gustafson said. “So here we are a year later, and it’s still not truly resolved, in that there’s still talk about where a temporary shelter will be located and certainly not a permanent shelter.”
