How the submissions will help

If you have experienced homelessness or had problems with your housing, you can make a submission to the Advocate. Individuals and organizations can share their experiences.

Your submission will help the Advocate better understand systemic housing issues in Canada. The Advocate uses this information to tailor recommendations and solutions to specific communities and to those most in need, as well as drive change to housing policies, programs and initiatives.

One of the Advocate’s roles is to amplify the voices of those impacted by inadequate housing and homelessness. Sharing your experience will help the Advocate drive change and advance the right to housing for all in Canada.

Sharing your experiences will help the Advocate:

  • make recommendations to the government and other decision-makers to improve Canada’s housing laws, policies and programs
  • raise awareness on the most common and critical housing issues people are facing
  • hold governments to account on their obligations to address housing need and homelessness across Canada
  • drive change on key systemic housing issues and advance the right to housing for all in Canada
