Report #3 Factors Influencing Poverty and Homelessness in Dartmouth
Report #3 Factors Influencing Poverty and Homelessness in Dartmouth-Cole Harbour Summary of Dartmouth North Studies (Attached Tables for Dartmouth South and Dartmouth East) 1. Harm Reduction in Dartmouth North: planning for addiction 2. Housing Trilogy, Dartmouth North Report, November 2017 3. The Highfield/Pinecrest Neighbourhood Housing Initiative: A Working Proposal, September 2016 • PDF attachment, Dartmouth South and Dartmouth East 1. Harm Reduction in Dartmouth North: planning for addiction Juniper Littlefield Undergraduate Honours Thesis Proposal Advised by Ren Thomas April 9th, 2018 Bachelors of Community Design, Honours Urban Design Dalhousie University School of Planning Halifax, NS Dartmouth North stands out as having no focused mental health or addictions supports available to everyone. There are no public health locations in the area, and only one private practitioner—resulting in poor health care access. Drug-related charges (accessed through police records) and community consultation (Between the Bridges, 2015), indicate that alcohol, cocaine, and opiate dependencies are likely major concerns for the Dartmouth North community. Cannabis related charges are also frequent through each of these neighbourhoods, which based on literature, may indicate the presence of other mental health and addiction issues (Rhodes et al., 2006). Dartmouth North, located just inside the circumferential highway (Figure 1), has some of the lowest incomes and shelter costs in the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). 43% of households spend 30% or more of their income on shelter, signaling income-induced housing poverty (Statistics Canada, 2011). At 33.6%, this area has the highest neighbourhood rate of individual poverty in HRM, according to 2015 data included in United Way’s Poverty Solutions report (2018).
