Thirty years of research have shown Housing First to be an effective approach to ending chronic homelessness.
The language of Housing First can be seen in federal housing policy briefs, and some jurisdictions require demonstration of Housing First principles as a condition of funding. But the implementation of Housing First proves to be a complicated task that spans across a siloed service delivery system. This training identifies essential ingredients in the recipe of Housing First implementation, exploring the process from identification of need all the way through obtaining funding.
Despite the long history of successful outcomes for Housing First programs, community buy-in and navigating complex political environments in local jurisdictions can be a barrier to implementing Housing First. We will offer tips for navigating the political landscape and innovative funding conversations.
