MICRO-SHELTERS, MACRO IMPACT: A Transitional Step from Houselessness to Housing

DJ Vincent, Pastor, Church at The Park (C@P) will speak about Micro-Shelter Villages in Salem. C@P explains their Micro-Shelter Village concept simply: “bring people out of the woods, vehicles and sidewalks into relationship and connection with resources. The associated workforce development brings confidence, honor and healing.” Given two years of experience operating villages, DJ will provide insight into micro-shelters as a critical part of the solution for the entire community, with particular attention to siting, operation, people served, public response and the future.
