“No Room to Spare” - Ottawa’s Community Response to Hoarding Plan (url)

January 27, 2008

Recently I have been working with a person who hoards stuff, especially food.  I have been trying to understand this phenomenon and find resources that communities and/or organizations have developed as people who hoard often face homelessness if evicted.

One of the most informative documents I have come across so far is the "No Room to Spare - Ottawa’s Community Response to Hoarding Plan" which promotes a coordinated community response (see
