City of Prince George Poverty Reduction Strategy 2021-2024
This document presents the nineteen final recommendations from the City of Prince George Select Committee on Poverty Reduction for Council consideration. Developed between November 2019 and October 2020, these recommendations aim to guide municipal action and advocacy at the local level. They are structured around six key focus areas: Stigma & Discrimination, Housing (suitability & affordability), Access to Services & Supports, Food Security, Education & Employment, and Transportation. The recommendations were prioritized through a community engagement process and address the full spectrum of poverty, aligning with the provincial TogetherBC strategy which targets poverty reduction by 2024.
