City: Homeless population has doubled since last year – Cambridge Today
There are now 200 people living in 44 encampments across Sudbury, said the city in a statement posted July 30
“This is a significant increase from the same time last year when we knew of 77 people across 44 locations,’ reads the statement.
Sudbury.com recently covered the growing encampments, and the court case that is protecting them while there is a lack of space in the shelters. You can find that story here.
City said they continue to work with community partners, and reference the Roadmap to End Homelessness, a plan to have the city at functional zero — that is, more or less than three homeless people at a time.
