Virtual Meeting for COVID-19 Response for Shelters and Other Congregate Facilities
NCCEH and the NC Emergency Solutions Grants Office at the NC Department of Health and Human Services are hosting a virtual meeting for shelters, transitional houses, day centers or other congregate facilities serving people experiencing homelessness to discuss the response to COVID-19. Information is being shared with the North Carolina Coronavirus Task Force.
We know shelters are working on the top priority of maintaining the safety of their clients and staff at this time.
This call will cover:
- Successes and challenges in implementing HUD and CDC guidelines for shelters and other congregate facilities.
- Learn and share creative strategies being used across North Carolina and in other states.
- Share your needs and requests for local, state, and federal partners.
- This call will be recorded and posted on NCCEH's COVID-19 resources page. Information from the call will be shared with state and federal partners to aid our response.
Please note: Should we reach our maximum viewers for the webinar, we'll post the recorded call. RSVP to get an email when it is posted.

In addition to the call, NCCEH is asking all shelters, drop-in centers, and transitional housing programs to complete a survey to identify preparedness and ongoing needs in serving people experiencing homelessness during the COVID-19 response.
