Street Outreach serves a critical role in the homeless response system, often reaching people who aren’t accessing services in any other way. Incorporating a housing focus into street outreach programs improves outcomes for persons experiencing unsheltered homelessness by eliminating the need to first enter emergency shelter, and instead directly connecting them to safe, stable, permanent housing.
This webinar series provides an overview of the basics of housing-focused street outreach, highlights communities that are effectively addressing unsheltered homelessness using housing-focused street outreach models and provides clear guidance for shifting the focus of outreach to housing both on the ground and at the system level.
You will learn to:
- Understand the fundamentals of housing-focused street outreach.
- Increase knowledge of the benefits of shifting to housing-focused street outreach.
- Understand how other communities are implementing housing-focused street outreach.
