Meeting the needs of vulnerable populations in congregate care settings, particularly domestic violence shelters and group homes for homeless youth, can be a masterclass in resourcefulness and thoughtful planning. On May 28, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) hosted a webinar exploring common themes and proposing real world solutions to challenges that shelter advocates and youth serving professionals have encountered since the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) public health emergency.
Information and published resources from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), COVID-19 Guidance for Shared or Congregate Housing Visit disclaimer page were discussed to support practitioners in their ongoing efforts to plan for and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic in shared and congregate housing. Because the webinar registrations quickly reached capacity, many who wished to attend were unable to.
