The Role of Emergency Shelter in a Crisis Response System
National Alliance to End Homelessness
April 26, 2017
Watch the first of our Emergency Shelter webinar series on the effective role of shelter in a crisis response system.
Emergency shelters play a critical role in ending homelessness. Effective shelters should embrace a Housing First approach, offer immediate and low-barrier access to anyone facing a housing crisis, and measure shelter performance in order to improve results. The Emergency Shelter Learning Series is a collection of webinars and resources from the Alliance focused on explaining the philosophy and practice of effective emergency shelter.
