In the final episode of our special series on the Collaboratory and solutions to homelessness, we dive into the transformative solution that emerged from our work: Resource Connection Hubs. These Hubs, designed by those with lived experience, aim to address a critical gap in the homelessness response system—helping people find the resources they need before they experience homelessness or fall into chronic homelessness.
You'll hear from Collaboratory co-designers, champions, and national experts on:
🔹 Why peer-led support is key to making the system more effective.
🔹 How these hubs differ from existing resource centers.
🔹 The power of community-driven solutions in preventing homelessness.
🔹 What’s next for piloting and scaling this initiative.
Featured Voices:
🎙 Jennifer Speight (National homelessness advocate) on the urgency of early intervention.
🎙 Jeff Olivet (Federal homelessness expert) on the importance of local solutions.
🎙 Collaboratory co-designers & champions on how the Hubs will reshape Denver’s response system.
🎙 Jamie Morgan (Collaboratory facilitator) on what makes the Collaboratory model work.
