The Department of Mental Health, Central West, Western Area, Cultural & Diversity Committee invite you to:
Diverse Faces of Homelessness: A Cultural Perspective
Tuesday, May 10
4:30-6:30 pm
Scibelli Hall – 7th Floor
Springfield Technical Community College
Homelessness does not discriminate. It can be long or short term. It can happen to anyone; individuals, families, veterans, youth, even you. All it takes is a fire, the lost of a job, illness or an addiction that is out of control.
Seeking help may be hard for some people. But services are available to help those who are homeless. It just takes that first step.
The Panel
Moderator: David Modzelewski, Mental Health Association, formerly Department of Mental Health
Jay Levy, WM Director of Eliot Services
Marvin Gonzalez, Case Manager, Eliot Services
Gumersindo Gomez, Executive Director, WM Bi-lingual Veterans Outreach Center
Kim Rivera/Amaad Rivera
Kareen Silvera, Employment Specialist Solid Ground Program
