Narrative: The outreach team served a total of 90 households including individual and family households this quarter. The team assisted in housing 17 individuals and 2 families and assisted 19 households achieve stability from a precariously housed situation.
The outreach program continues to work closely with Lawrence Community Shelter to provide access to emergency shelter for those who have no other shelter options. LCS is not an available option for every person without any other shelter options, and so the outreach team also continues to assist with camping costs and supplies at the state park, and other camping venues.
The need for emergency shelter remains high, as well as the need for accessible affordable housing, and landlords/management companies who are willing to work with LDCHA/a subsidy program.
The PATH program will be adding 1 more PATH outreach worker by the year’s end, which will increase the team size from 3 to 4 workers. The team supervisor has also requested an increase in city funding to add one more worker, bringing the team size to a total of 5 workers (the original size of the team). However, no information has been received from the city about whether the request will be fully funded. Nevertheless, an additional PATH worker will provide the team, and more importantly those experiencing homelessness and seeking assistance, with a needed increase in staff for providing outreach services.
