Episode Synopsis

Affordable housing has been an ongoing political story in Nova Scotia and we've seen it come to a head in Halifax. Governments at every level are offering solutions and programs to try and help address the challenges. But a roof over your head is only part of the social determinants of health. And that is something being highlighted in a blog post by the CEO and President of United Way Halifax. Sara Napier offers her thoughts on being an umbrella organization in the rainstorm of a pandemic, housing shortages and mental health challenges.
