More Information:  

This workshop is directed at staff of agencies (social workers, case workers and advocates) working with very low income and homeless populations.  The workshop training focuses on all aspects of obtaining and maintaining housing and shelter for their clients.

The training includes landlord/tenant and fair housing laws which can help clients maintain housing and take appropriate steps should there be a fair housing complaint or discrimination or inappropriate landlord behavior. There is a section that focuses on special groups such as veterans, homeless and individuals with special needs.

The  training includes how to find housing for people through a local housing finder website – www.housingcleveland.org which is updated regularly.  This website helps caseworkers find affordable housing for their clients and allows them to filter properties by tenant’s special needs using tenant tools which are provided on the website.
