NAEH Rapid Re-Housing Webinar
On Wednesday, May 5 at 3 p.m. ET, representatives from Cincinnati, OH will discuss their community's rapid re-housing system on an Alliance webinar entitled "Targeting, Outcomes, and Evaluation in a Family Rapid Re-Housing System: Strategies from Cincinnati, OH." Speakers will include Michelle Budzek, President of The Partnership Center, Ltd., and Darlene Robinson, Shelter Director at Bethany House Services, Inc.
Cincinnati has successfully centered Continuum of Care (CoC) stakeholders around a few well-defined goals and specific strategies to achieve these goals. The speakers' presentations will cover how the community developed its system goals and outcomes, as well as how the community's approach to stakeholder engagement has helped to achieve a high level of stakeholder support for and participation in the approach to ending homelessness. Finally, the speakers will discuss how the community's approach to targeting, accountability, and evaluation has helped track more than 3,800 homeless families and children, 74 percent of whom have never returned to Cincinnati's shelter system.
