The Greater Victoria Coalition to End Homelessness doing business as The Alliance to End Homelessness in the Capital Region (the AEHCR) membership consists of local housing health & social service providers non-profit organizations all levels of government businesses post-secondary institutions the faith community people with lived & living experiences of homelessness and members of the general public. This diverse membership referred to as the Alliance Partners comes together to collectively address the needs of individuals experiencing homelessness in the Capital Region. The AEHCR creates and optimizes synergistic opportunities among its partners as it builds on its focus on leading change toward Functional Zero Homelessness in the region and beyond on growing partnerships to drive prevention and on shaping a future where everyone has a safe place to call home. Our Vision: A region a province and a country where everyone has a safe place to call home. Our Mission: To ensure experiences of homelessness in the Capital Region by 2030 are rare brief and non-recurring and that housing and supports are culturally adaptive creative caring and person-centered. Functional zero is a concrete and measurable approach to ending homelessness. When a community has reached functional zero it means homelessness is managed by an adequate amount of services and resources. Simply put it means that there are enough or even more homelessness-serving services and resources than needed to meet the needs of individuals who are experiencing homelessness or are transitioning out of homelessness. This definition and approach to ending homelessness gives communities the autonomy to reflect on what ending homelessness would and should look like in consideration of the amount of people experiencing homelessness in it’s varying forms the amount of supports currently available and the supports needed to fill those gaps.
