COVID-19 Webinar Series: Focusing on People Who Are Unsheltered

May 5, 2020

As communities struggle to manage the intersection of the coronavirus pandemic and homelessness, many efforts have been focused on people who are sheltered. In the meantime, thousands of unsheltered people are unable to comply with social distancing or preventative hygiene recommendations because they are unsheltered.

This webinar will focus on making unsheltered homelessness an immediate priority during the pandemic, including by increasing street outreach and health services and getting unsheltered people into both shelter and housing as quickly as possible.

Time: 
Tuesday, May 5th — 3:00 – 4:30 pm ET

Speakers:
Michael Durham, Technical Assistance Manager, National Healthcare for the Homeless Council
Kendall Cloeter, Housing Program Manager, State of VA Dept. of Housing & Community Development
Rachel Biggs, Policy Director, Albuquerque Health Care for the Homeless
Marco Santana, Director of Engagement, LA Family Housing
