Regional Advisory Board Role
The Reaching Home Indigenous NL Regional Advisory Board (RAB) is a decision-making think tank that invites calls for proposals to address homelessness as experienced by Indigenous people, analyzes for and recommends project approval, and strategizes to raise public awareness and action. Ideally, we seek partnership projects that provide services to hub communities where Indigenous (off-reserve) populations are growing, and which recognize and are prepared to assist Indigenous people who meet the Indigenous Homelessness definition.
