The connection between employment and homelessness is evident: homelessness is a barrier to stable employment. Without the fair opportunity for employment, the ability to find a home and stay housed dramatically decreases putting individuals and families at risk. How, as funders, can we invest in and use our influence to leverage tactics to help employ individuals experiencing homelessness?

Join us on Wednesday, August 24th at 3:30pm ET as our expert panelists discuss how funders can advance employment opportunities and engage employers in the community to build support around these efforts. The speakers will also share examples of what is working in Colorado to help individuals who experience barriers to employment through partnerships throughout the community.

Panelists include:

• Ed Blair, Embassy Suites Downtown Denver
• Jeff Hirota, The Denver Foundation
• Chaer Robert, Colorado Center on Law and Policy
• Laura Ware, Colorado Center on Law and Policy
• Melissa Young, Heartland Alliance
