How can you design effective HOUSE programming? This webinar explores three frameworks for HOUSE Liaisons to use: The Trauma-Informed Approach, The Ethics of Care, and Compassionate Assistance. All three frameworks involve approaching students with kindness, building a sense of community and connection that helps students thrive, and empowering students to use their strengths to achieve goals.

HOUSE Service Delivery Models - Presented by: Lynn Mackey, Zuccarello & Associates, November 12, 2024

This webinar explores service delivery models for HOUSE Liaisons so that it’s possible to plan and design basic needs service delivery intentionally and ensure that students receive the essential services to be successful. Service delivery models that include a mix of high-touch and low-touch services along with opt-in and opt-out services produce optimal results.

2024 Spring HOUSE Webinar Series

Nudging: Using Low-cost, Low-touch Interventions to Support Students Experiencing Homelessness - Presented by Patty Zuccarello, Zuccarello & Associates

Nudging may already be in use on your campus as you push information to students about various student lifecycle activities (registration, payment, graduation). But this strategy can also be used to help point students toward services that improve students’ connection to basic needs resources. This session will cover nudging fundamentals and provide a calendar template to plan nudging at your institution.
