Memorial held for 57 deaths due to London, Ont. homelessness since 2021
Jason Galindo is the chair of the LHC’s death notification protocol, which partners with several local agencies to track deaths in the homeless community. The agencies involved are also tasked with informing the community about the cause of death, if it’s known, along with any memorials being planned for the person who died.
“It might be that some might not know the exists; it might be that, for example, the notification protocol is sent to somebody on the membership who isn’t flowing that information down,” Galindo said. “I find it really important that this protocol actually expand and the infrastructure strengthen, so that way we’re actually accurately telling the stories of individuals that we’ve supported in the community, otherwise it’s up to bias and assumptions as to why these individuals passed,” Galindo said.
