HYPE's Community Involvement Committee is partnering with Hands on Hartford for a special community conversations event, Faces of Homelessness. The Faces of Homelessness Speakers’ Bureau travels throughout the state of Connecticut (and beyond) to share their own experiences of homelessness, dispel myths, educate audiences on the causes of homelessness, and encourage others to get involved in making positive changes in the community.
A representative of The Faces of Homelessness Speakers' Bureau will be sharing their story during this powerful program.
This event will feature topics such as:
Overview of Homelessness
Speakers’ story
Q & A session
Ways you can get involved
Attendees will also participate in a hands-on volunteer experience at the front end of the program, curating Blessing Bags for Hands on Hartford's Homeless Outreach initiatives. Blessing Bags, also known as Necessity Bags or Care Kits, include a variety of items for people who are homeless, hungry, and in need of necessities.
Registration is required for this free event | Open to HYPE Members and Non-Members
