Webinar: Frequently Asked Questions for Low-Barrier Shelters

February 15, 2018

In 2017, the Alliance’s Center for Capacity Building launched the Emergency Shelter Learning Series — a collection of webinars, infographics, tools, and assessments — to help shelters implement effective housing-focused practices and lower barriers. It also focused on helping system leaders better integrate and support shelters in their efforts to end homelessness. More than 8,500 people viewed the webinars live or through the recordings on YouTube, and many of you provided feedback through webinar Q&As, surveys, and emails you’ve sent to us with your questions and comments. We have compiled them and selected the most challenging and frequently asked questions for a team of experts to answer!

You can also check out our resources page to catch up on anything you may have missed.

We want to keep hearing from you, too, as we learn so much from your experience as you implement changes to your shelter. As we prepare for the continuation of this series, we want to know how the learning series may have spurred changes in your work and what would be most helpful as you continue to evaluate your shelters and implement best practices. Please complete this short survey to give us your feedback on what you’ve liked, what you’ve done, and what you’d like to see us do next.
