In addition to our robust Speakers’ Bureau and Walking Tours, we offer 2-hour online trainings in the following areas (at the cost of $150 per 2 hour session.) Because each training is virtual, you can have up to 100 participants in your training, all at the same cost of $150 for the session.
Training is a great way for organizations, businesses, classrooms, and individuals to learn more about what role you play in eradicating homelessness. Note: there’s no need to take them in order, while they build on the content from the Speakers and Tours, each training stands on its own. Sign up today!
