The Portland Conversations: Ending Chronic Homelessness Through Employment and Housing
Description:
Five demonstration projects in urban centers, now in their final year of federal funding, were created to test a housing plus employment strategy. Each represents a unique collaboration involving local workforce investment boards, government-led housing agencies, and other partners. This report chronicles conversations among the staff from the five sites joined by Federal agency staff, housing and homelessness experts, and the staff of the Chronic Homelessness and Employment Technical Assistance Center (CHETA). The discussions took place at the second annual grantee conference, held April 25-26, 2007, in Portland, Oregon. (Authors)
