This past year, Inn from the Cold has provided shelter andcompassionate support for Cal�ary's most vulnerable children andfamilies. Thanks to our community supporters, volunteers, partnera�encies and funders, we were able to provide much more than aroof and a bed, but also the resources required to move families onthe path to independence. Alon� with the Board, I am incredibly proud of the dedicated teamof staff who passionately care for the needs of familiesexperiencin� housin� crisis. The support from community isevident in the followin� pa�es, and in the number of families whofound their way home over the past 365 days. Inn from the Cold is dedicated to providin� families a continuum ofsupport and resources to end the cycle of homelessness. And weknow that this is only possible throu�h the support of ourcommunity, and because of the �enerosity of people like you. On behalf of the children, mothers and fathers we serve, thank you.

OUR WORK

1HOMELESSNESS PREVENTIONAt Inn from the Cold, we have a vision to see a community where no child or family ishomeless. That's why prevention and diversion are always our first step if possible. Whena family in distress calls on us because they are facin� a crisis, we partner with acollective of a�encies to remove barriers and ensure that the family stays housed. The moment a child becomes homeless creates toxic stress and ne�atively affects theiroverall development. If we can prevent children from experiencin� homelessness, we canprevent the cycle of homelessness from ever be�innin�.

2TEMPORARY EMERGENCY SHELTERWhen a family has already become homeless and comes to our Emer�ency FamilyShelter, we provide a ran�e of supports to ensure they can move from homelessness toindependence as soon as possible. As Alberta's lar�est street-level, low-barrier,Emer�ency Family Shelter, we operate 24/7, 365 days a year. For children and youth, experiencin� homelessness can have a lastin� effect. Our EarlyChildhood and Youth Development supports are specifically desi�ned to help childrencope with trauma and �ain the tools they need to build a bri�hter future.

3HOUSING & SUPPORTWe provide on�oin� support by helpin� families plan for the future and advocatin� ontheir behalf. The families we work with also have access to peer-support networks andreferrals to other or�anizations and community resources. We offer supportive housin� with Journey House 1 and 2 by providin� 19 apartmentswhere families can stay on their path from homelessness to independence.

WE ARE A SAFE PLACE

For every $1 invested in the operation of Inn from the Cold's shelter and housin�pro�rammin�, nearly $5 in social and economic value is created.

In 2018, Inn from the Cold en�a�ed SocialReturn on Investment (SROI) practitioners atConstellation Consultin� Group to conduct a fullSROI assessment of Inn from the Cold's shelterand housin� pro�rammin�. SROI helps or�anizations articulate the financialvalue of social outcomes created throu�h keyinvestments, revelain� how much value iscreated for every dollar invested.

Buildin� on the value created in shelters, there isan opportunity to advance value creation byofferin� supportive housin� options for familieswho have experienced or are at risk ofexperiencin� homelessness. The study indicates that by doin� so, investorsnot only address a core need of citizens in ourcommunity, but they also create si�nificanteconomic and social value for individuals,families communities and various levels of�overnment.

13Inn from the Cold 2018/ 2019 Report to Community

Alex and Dawn* didn’t know what to do, or where to �o when they suddenly lost their jobs and were evictedfrom their home. With two youn� children under the a�e of 10, and a newborn baby �irl, the youn� couplewere scared for the well-bein� of their family. Then they were told of a place called Inn from the Cold. Because of the support they received from the team, this youn� family found their way home for the holidaysat one of the Inn’s permanent supportive housin� buildin�s, Journey House 2, and were supportedthrou�hout their transition by Inn from the Cold’s move-out pro�ram which assisted with household items.When movin�, Alex said, “We wished and prayed to have a home for Christmas, we are so lucky to have ourwishes come true and that is all thanks to Inn from the Cold.” Since movin� into their new home the family has flourished once a�ain, both children started school in thecommunity, and are experiencin� the benefits of their daily routine. Alex has rejoined the workforce andDawn is now able to focus on their children and makin� their home a stable, safe place for the family. Dawn cannot believe the way their life has turned around. “We were scared, we thou�ht we had no options,we are completely humbled and forever �rateful to Inn from the Cold, they �ave us hope, and they �ave ushome a�ain.” This family’s journey from crisis to independence would not be possible without the assistance of ourcommunity. Thanks to the support of donors the Inn was able to provide the resources for this family to findtheir way home for the holidays, a place no family should ever be without. A shelter is not a home, but can help parents like Alex and Dawn achieve independence for their families. *Names have been chan�ed.
