A study by the Association of Municipalities of Ontario details the growing toll of homelessness on individuals, families, communities and governments.
The study suggests without significant intervention, homelessness could double in a decade , and more than triple to nearly 300,000 people in an economic downturn.
Ontario is the only province where the responsibility for social housing falls on municipalities, AMO says.
AMO report estimates about $11 billion during 10 years could end chronic homelessness by adding affordable housing, improving transitional and supportive services.
An additional $2 billion during eight years could largely eliminate encampments.
Oxford County recently announced its intention to use $2 million acquired by Woodstock for surpassing its housing goal on a new homelessness service centre.
