Description

The Housing Needs VISTA will work closely with program leadership and social workers to build infrastructure, develop curriculum, and improve data systems and processes. These activities will culminate in strengthened community engagement and improved service delivery for older adults and adults with disabilities at-risk or experiencing homelessness. The VISTA will engage with the target population and attend community meetings to understand the local context of social services. The member will be tasked with identifying improvements for client assessment tools and program procedures as well as present research findings to Eldercare staff to help better support current and future programming. The member will be tasked with developing new surveys and data measures that are specific to homelessness, so that we can more accurately reflect the needs of this population and the outcomes of services.
