I thank the member for his question.
Reaching Home, has reached almost 10,000 projects across the country since 2019 to date and, as I mentioned before, about 200,000 people who have been assisted with services and 110,000 who have found stable housing through Reaching Home. We are looking at the future with that program, in addition to the $1 billion that is part of Build Canada Homes. Build Canada Homes is focusing on transitional supportive housing using modular technology. We want to see these built as soon as possible with modern methods of construction. We have great models and examples of this, such as in Toronto with Dunn House in the Parkdale neighbourhood, which has those wraparound health services the member described.
We need the provinces to provide the funding for the wraparound services. Those are critical for supportive housing. We're looking at finding provinces to match our capital, as well as getting these built as quickly as possible with factory-built solutions. There are many examples across the country that we can pursue as well.
Many of the communities that you serve in and represent here, including Longueuil, have agreements under Reaching Home. Funding is being provided to address the challenges we have with homelessness. We need to continue to invest through programs like Reaching Home and related programs, such as the veteran homelessness program, which provides about $73 million in funding support. We need to continue these programs and take the best of our learnings from them, as well as add this Build Canada Homes component of an additional billion dollars for supportive housing.
