HomeFront Shelter Consortium & General Housing Summer VISTA
 
 
 
HomeFront is developing a new alliance of providers of emergency shelter in the State of New Jersey that will share best practices, address emerging needs and advocate for both individual shelters and the network as a whole. The Shelter Provider Consortium aims to be the “go-to” source for expertise and collaboration between homeless service providers and policymakers. The Shelter Providers Consortium harnesses our relationships with government officials and the expertise, passion, and caring of our members to advocate for shelters and those they serve. The Consortium is still in early days and the VISTA Summer Associate will support efforts to expand and refine these efforts. This VISTA Summer Associate will also work closely with HomeFront’s CEO to respond to client crises and support ad hoc research and projects to meet agency and client needs.
