Homelessness event opens for registration
by Bernard Harbor
Demand for attendance at IMPACT’s forthcoming event on Dublin’s homelessness crisis is expected to be high and interested members have been advised to register early to avoid disappointment. Full details of the event have been published on the union’s website, where members can register to attend.
An impressive line-up of speakers includes Tánaiste Joan Burton and homelessness campaigner Father Peter McVerry. The event, hosted by the union’s Boards and Voluntary Agencies' branch, will challenge policymakers and practitioners to outline practical measures to implement their commitments to tackle the capital’s homelessness crisis.
Other confirmed contributors include Wayne Stanley of Focus Ireland, Bob Jordan of Threshold, IMPACT deputy general secretary Kevin Callinan, and Councillor Críona Ní Lathaigh who chairs Dublin City Council’s Strategic Policy Committee on housing.
