EDUCATION

Lasting change begins with understanding. Our education programs teach students how housing, poverty and stigma shape health, using evidence-based workshops and resources.

Educational Workshops

Health Equity workshops are a peer-led high school workshop series, with the goal of teaching homelessness as an intersectional issue and disassembling stereotypes early on. This initiative was born out of research conducted by Dr. Kaitlin Schwan, director of the Women’s National Housing and Homelessness Network, exploring the efficacy peer-led educational initiatives like this can have, since they provide a non-threatening medium compared to traditional adult-led workshops.
