1 Intake….. Listening A Face, A Name, A Story, …..You can lend an Ear
Getting Startedwith completing Intakes Intakes- Completed for Statistical information To help establish TOP THREE NEEDS for the Event Please look at your sample Intake Form along with TOP THREE NEEDS SHEETthese are very important parts of your job for the day of your event. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions….
Too much information? How do you know if you are doing your Intakes successfully and helping get the participants what they need? Listen! Keys to Connection Focus on CAUSES of Homelessness or ALMOST Homelessness
Connect the Dots Let’s play Connect the Dots. Now that the Intake Workers having completed the grueling process of paperwork, the Guides are up. It’s about Team work and the participants for the event will make that happen easily.
2 Guide….. Lead For Others to CHANGE…..The Leader needs to CHANGE
EVEN IF YOU NEVER KNOW IT Never underestimate your ability to make someone else’s life better
Top Three Choices May seem difficult to steer participants to only their TOP THREE CHOICES 1st…. However this is in their best interest This allows for them to make it through to their main priorities Remember that the INTAKE Volunteers listened to their stories and were able to narrow down their NEEDS Based on what was MOST IMPORTANT for them TODAYif there is time, them MAY be able to go to a few other areas that are on their list to gather support and services
Staying on track Make each Participant’s Experience PERSONAL that is what Project CONNECT is ALL about .
3 Connect….. Solutions Let’s Give Help for Solutions….Not Just another Connection to another Service
4 Provide….. Hope Hope , Encouragement, Personal Engagement…..Making a Difference
