A recent funding announcement from Lambton-Kent-Middlesex MPP Monte McNaughton is benefiting a local Homeless Prevention Program in Adelaide Metcalfe by helping keep residents off the streets. McNaughton announced back in April that $21,834,400 in funding will support London and Middlesex County under the Homelessness Prevention Program, an increase of 63 per cent compared to last year.
A portion of the funding will assist with the accommodations program running out of Countryside Motel just north of Strathroy. It looks to support individuals experiencing homelessness and tackle the backlog of people needing help finding and or keeping a home.
