Edmonton’s Community Outreach Transit Team expanding

An outreach team that patrols Edmonton transit spaces connecting vulnerable people to support is expanding. The Community Outreach Transit Team will now be operating nearly 24-7. The expansion comes as the city sees a growing need for support with the number of people experiencing homelessness at an all-time high. The City of Edmonton’s supervisor of community safety Jenna Pilot joined ‘Global News at Noon’ to share more about the impact the program is having.
