Published twice monthly in print and digital formats, the magazine addresses major social issues including homelessness, mental health, addiction, poverty, Indigenous realities, housing insecurity, and social justice. Unlike traditional magazines, more than 50 percent of its editorial content is written by camelots and participants involved in reintegration programs. This participatory editorial model allows contributors to gain writing, communication, and professional skills while reclaiming social visibility and dignity.
