Observations/Questions
Targeting Risk Don’t make decisions with clients that
have long-term impact – use progressive engagement
![Page 26: 1.3 Jamey Burden](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052311/5598aa9c1a28abb43f8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Observations/Questions
Don’t do mainstream services providers’ jobs
Use Barriers to Housing Stability Assessments
Don’t overextend families by placing them with high rent burdens
Overcoming myths

highest risk factors, best indicator is historical housing instability
