It takes a village – and we've supported many.
Large & small, across the country
Our favourite projects take us into the heart of their city or county. Because our unhoused neighbours won't get their lives back thanks to someone sitting at a desk far away – they want to be heard, understood, loved, and supported in their own community.
"Tony has been instrumental in the success of A Better Tent City Waterloo Region. His knowledge of the community we serve, coupled with his extraordinary ability to develop trust relationships with our residents, enabled him to engage them in building their community and accessing the essential services they require."

"You are incredibly well informed about all aspects of homelessness. You are responsive, effective and able to think outside the box to help us with problem solving. You are effective at keeping us on track. Perhaps most importantly for me, your heart, as well as your head, is in this very important work. Over my career, I have retained many, many consultants. You would be in the top 5%. Keep up the good work!"

"EFRY was very happy with the training and support you provided both to onboard and create our project and then to try to mitigate issues with the security team. There is nothing to give feedback on improving your work - all the feedback we received was positive. The training was instrumental at the beginning for us to think about creating community and to bring our staff together as a team!"
