As part of the Crises Response Pilot Project (CRPP), New Westminster City Council has approved the 2025 Crises Response Roadmap which is informed by recommendations from two new five and ten-year service plans. The plans include eight recommendations which prioritize advocating to other levels of government for additional funding and resources and will guide staff’s work in 2025.

The 2025 Crises Response Roadmap builds on the work already underway through existing strategies such as the Homelessness Action Strategy and the Downtown Livability Strategy. It also aligns with the Provincial Housing Target Order and the Interim Housing Needs Report.
