CART acts as the central hub within Lethbridge’s Homeless-Serving System of Care. It is the entry point into all LHA/CBO funded housing programs and operates based on a triage model - prioritizing chronically homeless individuals with the highest needs, first.
It is designed to direct the most chronically homeless and high-needs individuals and families towards interventions that best suit their needs. Our objective is to ensure resources are targeted to address those with the highest chronicity and level of need first while utilizing only those resources necessary for those with greater independence.
