Co-occurring health and public safety concerns involving mental illness, substance use, and homelessness are increasingly prevalent challenges for policymakers in cities worldwide. The Hub model is a roundtable process where the combined resources of diverse agencies are used to mitigate urgent risk of crime, victimization, illness and death, by establishing immediate connections with appropriate services and supports. Initiated in Scotland, the model has been replicated in more than 60 communities across Canada since 2012. In November 2105, the Surrey Mobilization and Resiliency Table (SMART) became the first Hub in British Columbia. Little peer-reviewed research has examined the impact of Hub inter-ventions from a client perspective. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 16 SMART clients and analyzed their responses thematically. We also examined demographic- and intervention-related characteristics reported in the SMART database. Participants described positive experiences with SMART service providers, and commented that the intervention was effective at meeting relatively circumscribed needs. However, most clients reported complex and mutually exacer-bating health and social conditions, and expressed the need for ongoing structured support (e.g., Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)). Our results emphasize the beneficial role played by SMART’s coordinated, real-time approach. They also indicate demand for social policies that include substantial and enduring forms of support to prevent crises and promote community safety.
