Currently, there are varying methods to determine risk levels of encampment sites or coordinated processes to determine priority.
The Peel Encampment Working Group has developed a draft encampment site assessment tool to identify health and safety needs and prioritize actions. This group also developed an Identification Template and a Needs Assessment tool. These assessments consider criteria pertaining to safety, health, interference, site compliance, client needs, social support, and connections. The results of these tools will assess site risks and determine mitigation strategies, interventions, and priority levels.
