The MA Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) has developed extensive resources regarding Discharge Planning to Support People Experiencing or at Risk of Homelessness. DHCD provided a training to front-line shelter staff on Feb. 28 that can be found here. And the Powerpoint for the training can be found here.
Additionally, please find these links:

- Reporting Form for Inappropriate Discharge to Adult Shelter: Individual Shelter Discharge Reporting Form – Formstack
Thanks to DHCD and the Executive Office of Health and Human Services for their work on this important issue.
