COSH Committee

The Coordination of Services and Housing (COSH) group is a subcommittee of the Homeless Services Network made up of various homeless services providers and other community partners. In addition to the coordination of housing strategies, employment readiness providers and health care, professionals participate in this process to broaden access, coordinate best practices and to advocate for appropriate services and opportunities. The primary strategic objective is to streamline information access to front line case managers to better assist their clients.
