We are happy to announce the first of a series of online sessions with our partners at the National Health Care for the Homeless Council. Our friend Cindy Manginelli will present :
Homelessness (Why Are People Homeless and How We Help or Hurt Those in Need)
Less than 5% of people who are homeless will ever stand on the side of the road with a cardboard sign or sleep under a bridge. Homelessness is a complex issue that is widely misunderstood by most caring community members. In this training we will discuss the primary causes of homelessness and how concerned communities and individuals can respond in ways that either help or hurt those in need.

Cindy directs the Council’s efforts to engage and create a diverse community of individuals, coalitions, and programs that directly address issues at the intersection of homelessness and health care. She also manages the Council’s ongoing work to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion within the community of those who experience and address homelessness. We are honored that she has joined us again this year!
