We feel it is <br />essential that all community members be aware of the importance of homelessness prevention and the <br />impact their participation can have on ensuring that all individuals and families have access to a warm, <br />safe place to call home in our community. Community partnerships, awareness, and the desire to <br />provide warm, safe housing in our community - these are the important themes of the event. <br /> <br />At the end of October, the Anoka County Board of Commissioners will be proclaiming November, <br />Homelessness Awareness Month. Our goal is to have each city in Anoka County join the effort to <br />promote public awareness of homelessness and have their city also proclaim November, <br />Homelessness Awareness Month. <br /> <br />Attached is information regarding homelessness in Anoka County and the Anoka County Community <br />Continuum of Care. In addition there is a proclamation your city can use in partnering with this <br />community project! <br /> <br />If you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact Kristi Koppen at <br />763-422-7313 for assistance. <br /> <br />Thank you for your commitment to be part of something BIG! <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br />Kristi Koppen <br />Housing Assistant <br />Anoka County Human Services <br /> <br />10/9/2008 <br />
