Press Coverage of Congressional Briefing

Hello Everyone—

I wanted to share the press coverage resulting from Tuesday’s Congressional Briefing with Senator Murphy, Senator Blumenthal, and Mayor Harp.  It was a great platform to highlight the work and outcomes of the 100-Day Challenge as the initial days came to a close on July 30th.  However, the event also highlighted that our work is in many ways just beginning as we continue to create the evolving system.

Please keep Wednesday, September 17^th from 9:00am to 11:00am open for the 100-Day Challenge Community Meeting, which will focus on the system, outcomes, project sustainability, and next steps.   Formal invitations will be coming.

As always, thank you to everyone for your efforts, dedication, and enthusiasm for this project.  This has been a tremendous community endeavor that has resulted in significant change and improved outcomes to rapidly move individuals into housing!
