The San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership invites the public to attend the 8th Annual Homeless Summit held in conjunction with the Interagency Council on Homelessness and the Homeless Provider Network.
Homeless service providers, faith-based organizations, city governments, and other public and private agencies involved in providing services to chronically homeless individuals and families are encouraged to attend.
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Ontario Convention Center, 2000 E. Convention Center Way in Ontario.
This year’s event is entitled “Collaboration is KEY”, and is geared to inspire faith-based and community-based homeless providers and government agencies to become more informed and active in forming practical solutions and policies to end homelessness. The summit will include a variety of targeted workshops including:
- A new law enforcement approach to homelessness;
- The role of WIA and EDD Employment programs, as well as the veteran program in helping people become employed;
- Funding opportunities for homeless service providers; and
- Progress on ending veteran homelessness
This year’s Homeless Summit is provided free of charge through the Partnerships continued commitment to provide quality services and salient resources to homeless service providers – our essential partners in our joint effort to end chronic homelessness.
Registration for this event is available through the San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership website at www.sbcounty.gov/sbchp/.
There are four workshops to choose from, so please pick one workshop from each section. You may also contact Deanna Luttrell from the Office of Homeless Services at (909) 386-8225 or via email at dluttrell@dbh.sbcounty.gov if you need assistance with summit registration.
