Tuesdays @ 2 Reductions in Chronic Homelessness Series: Asheville
The first call of three in our Tuesdays at Two: Reductions in Chronic Homelessness Series
(click here to view information on the series)
Asheville has reduced chronic homelessness by 82% since 2006 and is on track to achieve its ten-year plan goal to end chronic homelessness by 2015. Presenters will discuss how they have created many different pathways to permanent supportive housing through a strategic use of new and existing resources, including Continuum of Care, HOME, SAMSHA, and private funds; a local preference at the Housing Authority for chronically homeless people; and a whole lot ingenuity and willingness to change existing systems.
Instructions on how to join will be emailed to all registrants prior to the call.
