- **ABOUT THE COH AND HUB SOLUTIONS**

The Canadian Observatory on Homelessness (COH), housed at York University, is a non-partisan research and policy partnership between academics, policy and decision makers, service providers and people with lived experience of homelessness. Led by Dr. Stephen Gaetz, President & CEO, the COH works in collaboration with partners to conduct and mobilize research designed to have an impact on solutions to homelessness.

To bridge the gap between research, policy and practice, the COH goes beyond the mandate of a traditional research institute. Through _Hub Solutions_ — a COH social enterprise — we support agencies, communities and policy makers, to improve their capacity to end homelessness. Our philosophy is simple: through research, evaluation and communications, we can develop evidence-based solutions and together, solve homelessness.

Hub Solutions’ mandate is twofold. First, we seek to build the research, evaluation and design capacity of our partners, with the intention of improving our collective responses to homelessness. Second, income generated from Hub Solutions fee-for-service work, is reinvested into the COH to support research, innovation, policy recommendations and knowledge mobilization.

The Manager of Research & Evaluation is responsible for planning, oversight, coordination and implementation of all research and evaluation activities of Hub Solutions. Specific areas of responsibility include project development and implementation, business development, supervision of staff and promotion of the COH and its objectives.
- At the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness (COH), we believe anti-racism and anti-oppression must be at the centre of our work. Indigenous, Black and racialized communities are disproportionately represented among people experiencing homelessness as a result of social, political and economic inequities that create pathways to homelessness, and mainstream systems that keep these communities on the margins. Therefore, to address homelessness, we need to speak to the root of racial disparities, proactively engage in courageous conversations about power, privilege and whiteness (including white supremacy and fragility); and follow through with meaningful action._

- **A. Operational Planning and Leadership**_
