Simcoe County Alliance to End Homelessness (SCATEH)

Homelessness is a national issue reaching epidemic proportions never seen before in Canadian history.

Established in December 1998, The Simcoe County Alliance to End Homelessness is a coalition of over 70 community stakeholders and front line workers who are committed to developing and implementing strategies that will eliminate homelessness. The Alliance serves as a forum to understand, plan and co-ordinate activities that raise awareness of the complex issues surrounding homelessness and to create solutions.

Membership in the Alliance is open to individuals or organizations in Simcoe County who share this vision. The Alliance is governed by a Steering Committee of approximately 20 organizational representatives. There are 5 Chapters in Simcoe County: North Simcoe, South Simcoe, Orillia, Barrie and South Georgian Bay. The Alliance holds general membership planning sessions twice a year.
