Supporting Unhoused Children Right Now with the Resources They Need for Stability

---

The intended impact of The Young Child Homelessness Outreach Project of North Carolina is to ensure that children in families experiencing homelessness have positive childhood experiences and stability that help build resilience. 

We can work better together. If services and supports are better integrated, systems work better in real time to address the unique needs of children when facing homelessness. 

We can lower the barriers to care for children 0 – 12. Access to high quality child care and subsidies support whole families, helping parents begin to find solutions — employment, education, healthcare — when their children are cared for by people who understand their needs. 

We can start today. Positive childhood experiences build resilience. These can’t wait for more money or housing or policy change. 

Partners for Impact is contracted to work with family service providers across the state that have local connections with families who are in temporary housing or who are unhoused. 

• In at least three focused outreach communities per year, we are strengthening relationships and capacity of family service providers. We are helping to connect across early childhood and homeless services.
• We are building a statewide database of service providers, providing broad education through electronic communications and informative newsletters (see below.)
• We will evaluate our efforts along with other aspects of the project as well as gather data from families and direct service providers. 

Focused Outreach Communities: Edgecombe/Nash Counties, Catawba, and Chatham/Harnett
