Planning CarePoint South

Edmonton city council has approved rezoning for CarePoint South, a planned 120-bed emergency shelter in the Girard Industrial area. So what happens next? Tim Pasma talks about what Hope Mission is planning for the site, why another 24/7 shelter is needed, and what the organization has learned from operating smaller shelters outside downtown. He also explains what services will be available at CarePoint South, why Hope Mission chose this location, how concerns from neighbouring businesses are being addressed, and what still needs to happen before the shelter can open.
