Elevating the Needs of the Homeless Services Workforce: Findings from Recent Nationwide Surveys
December 6, 2023Human services workers across multiple sectors have been yelling from the rooftops that their professions are in distress. The homeless services workforce is adding to the chorus. To help their voices be heard, the Alliance circulated a nationwide survey earlier this year. Around the same time, researchers from Azusa Pacific University developed a related effort. Both teams’ findings focused on the impacts of factors such as salaries and benefits, high employee turnover, and understaffing on the homeless services field.
This webinar will highlight findings from these nationwide surveys and begin a conversation about how to use these findings to inform policy and practice.
Speakers:

- Joy Moses (National Alliance to End Homelessness)
- Donna Gallup (Azusa Pacific University)
