Truthtellers and Peacemakers Conference - March 2006

Street Level 2006 will be an event like no other in all of Canada, and it is our hope that this site can be a resource to you as the excitement builds.

In an era of tremendous national wealth, a staggering number of children, youth and adults are homeless – and many, many more are at risk.

In March 2006, hundreds of people, from across Canada, who are passionately engaged in finding solutions to these issues will come together in Ottawa for a unique time of training, inspiration and encouragement – STREET LEVEL!

Truthtellers and Peacemakers is our conference theme; a call, an invitation, a vision for who and how we want to be as we address the overwhelming issues of homelessness, in small towns and large cities, all across Canada.

This is NOT “just a conference”. We believe this important event could be a national turning point, leading us to understand and act in new ways on our capacity to change the course of Canada – and perhaps other nations as well – regarding homelessness.

On behalf of the Street Level conference committee – we encourage you to set these important conference dates aside, make plans to attend, and visit this site regularly, so that you can share in the great anticipation and excitement of Street Level 2006.”
