Kelly Lamrock thinks New Brunswick’s non-profits are delivering key social services, and he wants the provincial government to start treating them like that.
In his latest report, New Brunswick’s child, youth and seniors advocate makes a case for a new relationship between government and the community sector, inspired by the story of two bus tickets.
Lamrock describes a pair of 19-year-old New Brunswickers who are living rough in a tent. The two young men have a pathway to support and stability, thanks to a community group and family connections in their hometown.
