Government funding lacking for emergency shelters
Currently, 21% of emergency shelter bed capacity; 81% and 77% of second stage and seniors' shelters respectively, remain unfunded by the provincial government. What this means is that only 4 of the 28 provincially funded emergency shelters in Alberta are fully funded for 24 hour services.
