The 6th Annual Durham Project Homeless Connect will be held Thursday, October 11, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.  Project Homeless Connect (PHC) is a one-day, one-stop, on-site center designed to link people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness with needed services and to reduce major barriers that prevent people from becoming stably housed. PHC will provide a broad range of services, including housing, employment, health and dental care, mental health care, veterans' and social service benefits, legal services, and more.

 

Approximately 500 volunteers are needed for this year’s event, with positions available for all schedules, abilities, and interests. Volunteers can help on the day of the event or the evening before with event set-up. Bilingual volunteers fluent in Spanish are also needed. People interested in volunteering should register through the volunteer portal website at www.phcdurham.nisurvey.com by Friday, October 5.
