Network Members will participate in quarterly workshops on special topics identified through organizational assessments, utilizing a range of teaching methods and focused heavily on the case method, in which organizational challenges faced by actual partner organizations are examined.

Leadership and Policy Roundtable

Educational Web Seminars

Via educational web seminars, Network Members will be provided with training and technical assistance on special topics identified through organizational assessments such as applying for public benefits, partnering with permanent housing providers, and the importance of accessing your Continuum of Care for HUD funding.

Statewide Convening

Network Members will convene annually with providers across the state, where additional technical assistance and training will be provided on a range of topics, and as an opportunity for providers to strengthen their statewide network and update them on timely policy developments on the local, state, and federal levels.

Technical Assistance Publications

Four publications will be disseminated, targeted specifically to the needs of homeless youth providers and aiming to have a lasting impact on the sustainability of organizations receiving technical assistance.
