DBHR Housing Topical Webinar

February 25, 2016 @ 8:30 am - 9:30 am

The monthly DBHR Housing Topical Webinar is scheduled for February 25th from 8:30-10:00  The topic will focus on delivering supportive housing services in a Medicaid Driven System featuring Carol Wilkins.  Carol Wilkins, M.P.P. works to develop and support the implementation of evidence-based policy solutions to end homelessness for people with complex health needs and vulnerabilities. Through research and technical assistance, she works to increase the capacity of state and local governments and non-profit agencies to create integrated systems to provide housing opportunities linked to effective health care and supportive services. She has worked with several states to support the use of Medicaid financing and delivery systems to provide the services and supports needed for homeless people with complex health needs to get and keep housing, and to reduce avoidable hospitalizations and other costs.  Her experience includes contributing to the development of Opening Doors: the Federal Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness and creating web-based tools and resources to support replication of best practices in ending homelessness. Additionally, Ms. Wilkins has worked with HomeBase to provide facilitation and technical assistance to State of California and State of Washington Policy Academies on Chronic Homelessness.
