dc.description.abstractThis presentation examines homelessness in Washington County, Indiana, highlighting the unique challenges faced by rural communities such as hidden homelessness, limited affordable housing, and lack of transportation. It reviews existing social service providers and identifies gaps in coordination among agencies. The report proposes three key strategies: improving data collection through a by-name list, forming a county-wide task force to align efforts and resources, and creating a centralized Help Hub to streamline access to services. Potential models for the Help Hub include an information hub, co-location of services, and comprehensive care coordination. The recommendations aim to reduce housing insecurity, improve public health, and strengthen community resilience.
