This fall, HAND hosted 6 interns from a variety of backgrounds. Led by HAND's Capacity Building and Training Manager, Torrey Henderson, the interns provided hundreds of hours staff support. While juggling numerous responsibilities, they increased CoC capacity, led important initiatives, offered innovative approaches, and elevated HAND's online presence. Their dedication and hard work will be appreciated for years to come. We know they'll excel professionally in any organization of their choosing.

Hats off to you!

Since 1990, the National Coalition for the Homeless, and other advocacy organizations have commemorated the National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day on December 21st. The purpose is to honor those we lost due to lack of housing, bring awareness, educate, and advocate with & for one of our most vulnerable populations.

Across the US, communities hold vigils, memorial services, marches and more. Locally, the Cathedral of Saint Paul holds a service. You can find more details on their site or register for the national virtual memorial.

The National Low Income Housing Coalition (NLIHC) is asking everyone to advocate for more housing funding by contacting our congressional representatives.

Contact your congress persons using this form.

CAM Detroit has put together a comprehensive community resource guide for homeless services. You can download the full document here.
