Foster Youth to Independence Grant Presentation Adapts to Social Distancing Needs
HUD Southeast Regional Administrator, Denise Cleveland-Leggett and Christopher Patterson, Pacific Regional Administrator and National lead for HUD's Foster Youth to Independence (FYI) Initiative had plans to meet in Gainesville, Florida to present a grant providing vouchers to Alachua County Housing. The vouchers will help 25 young adults aging out of foster care find a place of their own. Then the coronavirus outbreak hit. The HUD Jacksonville team brought everyone together virtually to officially present the housing authority with the FYI grant. Attendees included a local nonprofit, a Continuum of Care, a potential recipient and local commissioner. A total of 17 participants from coast to coast were able to join. Despite social distancing measures in place, we were still able to serve those in need. Please click here for highlights of the presentation (https://youtu.be/hBAghVcvP8I) ### |
