Coalition to address structural racism
We will convene a coalition of diverse stakeholders quarterly to elicit and review barriers to achieving housing stability and accessing mental health supports for our participants and to actively and collectively work to address these barriers. This Steering Committee (SC) is inclusive of CAB Members and augments this group with additional leaders at the local, city, and state levels, such as city and state officials, local and regional philanthropy, local businesses, law enforcement, and physical and mental healthcare and other social service providers and leadership of coalitions representing these providers. The TRUE HAVEN SC is well-suited to both identify policy and programmatic barriers to achieving equitable access to stable housing and mental healthcare as well as to collaboratively find and enact solutions to address such barriers. The SC will meet quarterly, review data on ongoing study outcomes, review information on barriers that have arisen to housing stability and accessing mental healthcare, and will engage in facilitated processes to propose and enact plans to address those barriers. We will track the number of barriers identified and initiatives enacted to address them at the local, city, and state levels over time.
