The Outreach Team has helped house 28 individuals and 7 families obtain housing this quarter as well as helped 10 households avoid eviction.

Bert Nash began increasing its collaboration with Lawrence Community Shelter with the assistance form a Diversion Mini Grant through the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services. This quarter, 42 individuals at the Lawrence Community Shelter were identified as needing Mental Health Services, and 13 people were referred to Bert Nash for an intake to initiate services.

On September 30th, the team presented at the first Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training put on by the Lawrence Police Department. The team presented ways that people experiencing homelessness interact with law enforcement and services available for these individuals. The presentation included a panel including the homeless outreach team, the director of LCS and three individuals who shared their personal experience being homeless. The training overall was a success and will continue twice a year and the team will work on ways to improve our collaboration with law enforcement.
