Abstract
Canadian housing policy and the categorical distinction between refugees, who receive government support for housing, and those who do not, demonstrate that obligations to refugees are increasingly being met by ethno-cultural communities, religious groups, refugee kinship networks, and community-based organizations. Devolving authority and responsibility for the provision of housing and of settlement services to the level of community does provide opportunities for input and decision-making autonomy on the part of community-based organizations (CBOs). 'Community' undoubtedly has a robust function in refugee service provision; however, such a function is realized amidst structures of differential market access and market power, as well as varying degrees of familiarity and capability within the local environment. Using a case study situated in Winnipeg, Manitoba, this article considers how refugee status and community actors contribute to refugee housing outcomes in a context in which refugee well-being is increasingly becoming 'neo-liberalized', or made a 'private' affair predicated on market processes and voluntary contributions. Community grounded research can help academics guard against categorical assumptions about community and institutional change, analysis which tempts us to abstract from the particular and ascribe such change to the often ungrounded, but always powerful, meta-value and meta-narrative of neoliberalism. Such research can write agential actors back into the narratives and analysis of wide-scale political, economic and social change. In short, this paper offers an approach that recognizes both the possibilities and limitations within community-based approaches to refugee service provision.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
