The Problem-Solving and Diversion Strategies Clinic assists participants in understanding and implementing system-wide and program level problem-solving interventions, specifically problem solving and diversion-focused strategies.

2-day clinic facilitated by the National Alliance to end Homelessness. During this clinic, the Alliance worked with our CoC to make changes in our homeless response system including implementing best practice policies and procedures, and right sizing their system to ensure that homelessness is rare, brief, and one time.

Over the course of 6-7 months, the Raleigh Wake Partnership is offering a menu of homelessness response topics that will provide participants excellent foundational knowledge and strategies for ending homelessness in Wake County.
