Johnson has been #homeless since June 2023. The family lived in a teepee, camped at powwows, couch-surfed & spent a month at a #Surrey homeless shelter before granted temporary funding to stay at a hotel through #JordansPrinciple — federal funding co-ordinated by #Indigenous Services #Canada.

Johnson is #Indigenous, from #Tsartlip Village, #Okanagan, Northern #Dene, #Han & Northern #Tutchone & Wolf Clan.

She has been on the #BCHousing #WaitList for nearly 5 years.
