Hosted by the local Poverty Reduction Network, the rally will stress the need for safe, affordable housing in the community.

The 12-noon gathering is also the kickoff for a “tent city” that will be set up throughout Lambton Mall the weekend of Oct. 16-18 by the Community Homelessness Initiatives Network.
