Preventing Homelessness Connect - Summer 2010

WHAT
ONE – DAY:
The biggest collaborative agency provider and community wide volunteer event in Southern Nevada.

ONE-STOP:
Where individuals and families get connected with the resources they need, from legal resources, to jobs, to   services, to housing. PHC Families and Prevention gives them the resources they need to overcome housing/economic barriers and increase sustainability.

WHEN & WHERE

DATE & TIME:
Tuesday, June 29, 2010; 8am – 4pm

WHERE:
Cox Pavilion

WHY:
We have over 13,000 homeless individuals and families at any given time in our community who need assistance. The number has increased due to the current economic situation, resulting from high rates of foreclosure and unemployment in Las Vegas and across the country today.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:
600 volunteers are needed to help individuals and families in need get connected to the resources that are available.  Volunteers must be 18 or older to participate.  To volunteer click HERE to sign up.
