Please join us for lunch on September 12th as we hear from Heather Britt, the former director of Wilder Research, about homelessness in Minnesota.
Since 1991, the Minnesota Homeless Study has been conducted as a collaboration between Wilder Research, state and county agencies, and hundreds of service providers across the state to better understand the prevalence of homelessness in Minnesota and the circumstances of people experiencing homelessness. The data and analysis from the study provide advocates, program and service providers, funders, and policymakers information they need to identify and address systemic issues, improve programs and policies, and ultimately eliminate homelessness. The next study will take place on October 26, 2023. This will be the first Minnesota Homeless Study conducted since the COVID-19 pandemic began. In her presentation, Dr. Britt will discuss the background and goals of the study and answer questions.
