Still looking: finding spot for permanent shelter a challenge for YWCA
Finding a permanent location for a 24/7 shelter for homeless people in Prince Albert is proving to be a challenge.
The YWCA, which operates the Stepping Stones shelter at its temporary location on the Exhibition Grounds, said several locations have been identified, but have not been approved by city hall.
The YWCA, City and Sask. Housing Authority have met several times and will meet again next week.
“There’s been no offers made yet. Where the meeting was left was that Sask Housing wanted the City to send them locations that would be suitable to explore,” said Donna Brooks, director of the YWCA.
