Homeless Outreach & Housing First: Lessons Learned

Homeless Outreach & Housing First: Lessons Learned

From the author of Homeless Narratives & Pretreatment Pathways:
Jay S. Levy brings us a new educational resource entitled Homeless Outreach & Housing First: Lessons Learned. This monograph features three written works on homelessness inclusive of an article on moral, fiscal, and quality of life considerations, a new story entitled "Ronald's Narrative: The Original Housing First", and an interview that was originally featured in Recovering The Self: A Journal of Hope and Healing. These three documents provide a rich and fertile resource for learning, reflecting, and informing needed action that promotes high quality outreach services and housing stabilization for the most vulnerable among us.

The Reader will...
* Learn about the positive measurable impact of a Housing First approach and its moral, fiscal, and quality of life implications.
* Explore the relationship between Homeless Outreach and Housing First, as well as understand the five basic pretreatment principles that can be applied to both.
* Learn how to utilize a Pretreatment Approach with individuals experiencing major mental illness and addiction.
* Understand how to better integrate Housing First and Homeless Outreach initiatives with homelessness policy.

Praise for Jay S. Levy

"This is one of the best guides I have read about working with the under-served and homeless. I wonder why all cities don't put it into place? How we approach our homeless can definitely make a difference. Sometimes it's not in the techniques, but in the attitude of the case manager." --Carol S. Hoyer, PhD, for Reader Views
