Annual Homeless Memorial Service
Since 2006 the Edmonton Coalition on Housing and Homelessness (ECOHH), with support from the City of Edmonton, has held an annual memorial service to pay tribute to individuals who died during the previous year from causes connected to homelessness or inadequate housing.
The Memorial will be on Thursday June 6, 2024 at 1:00PM at the Homeless Memorial Plaza (103A Avenue and 100 Street) - Due to construction at the site, the memorial will be on the west side of the Plaza
There will be a brief service called to order by a piper with the EPS Pipe Band. It will include speakers, indigenous drumming, smudging and laying of flowers to commemorate the many losses that friends, family, workers and concerned residents have experienced during the past year.
