NLIHC, the National Alliance to End Homelessness (NAEH), and the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP) invite advocates nationwide to register for the seventh webinar in our series on homelessness and Housing First. Join us for the webinar, “Housing First Supports People Impacted by the Criminal Legal System,” today (June 12) at 2:30 pm ET. The panelists will discuss federal efforts to remove unnecessary barriers to housing for people with criminal records and highlight state and local efforts to connect individuals impacted by the criminal legal system to housing and voluntary services using a Housing First approach.

Today’s webinar will feature NLIHC Policy Manager Kim Johnson; recorded remarks from Representative Nanette Barragán (D-CA), co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on Homelessness; Richard Cho, senior advisor for housing and services at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; Anna Bailey, senior policy analyst at CBPP; Victoria Jennings, supportive housing analyst at the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority; Veronica Lewis, director of Homeless Outreach Program Integrated Care System in Los Angeles, CA; and Taylar Nuevelle, founder and executive director of Who Speaks for Me?.
Please note that this webinar is not a training, and webinar attendees will not receive a certificate of completion.
More than 7,000 people registered for the four-part webinar series held by NLIHC and our partners in August and September 2022. Given the tremendous interest among stakeholders and the increased risk of harmful measures to criminalize homelessness, we have decided to continue our national webinar series, with webinars being held monthly. We will share critical information about solutions to homelessness and amplify the work of advocates and people with lived expertise across the nation.
