How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Credible Messenger Violence Reduction Model
    methodology: credible_messenger
    By deploying Street Outreach Workers from the community as credible messengers, we reduce violence among high-risk individuals because trusted peer relationships enable effective intervention and behavior change where formal systems fail.
  • Foreclosure Prevention Through Informed Decision-Making
    methodology: foreclosure-prevention-counseling
    By providing mortgage counseling to help homeowners understand their options, we improve housing stability because informed decision-making enables individuals to take timely and effective action to avoid displacement.
  • Integrated Approach to Social Determinants of Health
    methodology: social-determinants-of-health-integration
    By connecting individuals to community resources that address social needs such as housing, food, and transportation, we improve health outcomes because health is deeply influenced by non-medical, social factors.
  • Rapid Rehousing with Supportive Services
    methodology: rapid_rehousing
    By rapidly rehousing individuals experiencing homelessness and pairing housing placement with supportive services, we reduce the duration of homelessness and promote long-term stability because stable housing combined with tailored support addresses both immediate and underlying needs.
  • Self-Directed Support Model for Developmental Disabilities
    methodology: self-direction
    By allowing individuals with developmental disabilities to choose their service providers and delivery methods, we improve engagement and outcomes because personal autonomy fosters greater ownership and alignment with individual needs.
