Probably the most pressing issue with relation to homelessness and older people is about recognition and making sure that older people, both men and women, can access housing that's safe, affordable and sustainable. We have the program housing first. That often hasn't been thought through in terms of what older people might need and how that type of housing might be different. An example there might be about older people's safety and security. Just having a house is very different from having a home where you actually feel safe and secure. That house or that housing unit can be sustainable over time if your mobility needs change. We did have people talking about not wanting to take some of the places that were offered to them because they didn't want to live in dangerous situations. They talked about living beside drugs and trafficking and that sort of thing.
I would say that the key issue on homelessness and aging is recognizing how the needs of older people might be slightly different from those of the younger population.
