Review for The National Center on Family Homelessness, Needham, MA, USA
I have worked with the National Center on Family Homelessness for 7 years as a board member and helping them communicate their programs. This is one of the very few organizations that is dealing with the root causes of FAMILY homelessness and designing programs to help break the cycle and get families back on their feet. They provide case workers with the tools and research to effectively help homeless moms and kids. They have also presented a national Campaign to End Child Homelessness that has pushed this issue to the forefront for national and state policy makers.
