COVID-19 Homeless System Response: Discussion of Equity Products

Communities across the country are reimagining their homeless system response. As we meet the challenges set forth by the COVID-19 pandemic and by the overrepresentation of Black, Indigenous and other people of color in the homeless system, it is important that any reimagining starts with a foundation of racial equity.

SNAPS, in conjunction with their TA partners, released Rehousing Activation and Racial Equity Part 1: Equity as the Foundation in June 2020. The goal of this document is to orient communities with beginning their rehousing strategies and system reform with equity in mind.

SNAPS will continue to release guidance. This webinar walked through the Foundation as Equity concepts defined in the additional documents:

1. Equity Driven Changes to Coordinated Entry Prioritization
2. Prevention to Promote Equity
