Mark. >---------- Forwarded message ---------- >Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2000 11:42:37 -0400 >From: Havi Echenberg <havi@havidave.com> >To: Office@chebucto.ns.ca >Cc: "Samuel Muli (E-mail)" <smuli@chat.carleton.ca> >Subject: Homelessness prevention database - help requested > >Hello! I'm directing the development of a national homelessness prevention >strategy for Raising the Roof (http://www.raisingtheroof.org), a national >charitable organization dedicated to finding solutions for Canada's >homeless. One of our first tasks was to create a web-searchable database of >existing programs and initiatives with homelessness prevention as one of its >significant goals. One or more of the programs in our database are >administered by your organization. > >Our current task is to verify the information in the database; all came from >print references, from literature (brochures, etc) submitted to us, or from >Internet references. As we hope to launch this database in late September >or early October, we'd appreciate your verifying the information provided in >our database. The record associated with your agency - health outreach for >homeless men - can be found at >http://www.raisingtheroof.org/display.php3?this=275§or=&subsector=&proje >ct=. (If you need to receive the record information by fax, e-mail or >"snail" mail, let us know, and we'll send it off to you.) > > >An additional piece of information we'd like to add is "lessons learned". >Since the intention of this database is to provide information about what >has already been tried. If you would be willing to give us 20-30 words on >what you've learned since you started, that would be a very significant and >valuable contribution to others looking to the example you've provided. >Also, we'll be following up with ten per cent or more of the records >(programs) listed, to prepare one- or two-page case studies. If you're >interested in having a case study created of your program, please let us >know! > >Weíd appreciate your response to the following questions: >1. Is the information listed in our database accurate? >2. If not, could you provide the corrections in email, or would you prefer >to have us contact you by telephone to record the changes? >3. Can you provide a brief "lessons learned" addition? If so, >again, would >you like to be contacted by phone, rather than submitting it in writing? >4. Are you interested in being considered for one of our limited number of >case studies? >5. Do you have or know of other programs that should be added? > >Thank you so much for your help! Please return replies to >smuli@chat.carleton.ca. We look forward to working with you on this project, >and hope you'll find the database useful for your own purposes. -- ---------------------------------------- Mark Rushton, Editor Community Support & Development Chebucto Community Network (CCN) <Mark@chebucto.ns.ca> <http://www.chebucto.ns.ca> ----------------------------------------
