Project Homeless Connect 2009

Organized by Homeless Services Network of Central Florida and hosted by Northland Church at Longwood, Project Homeless Connect helped hundreds of individuals in need on Friday, March 20, 2009. The Homeless Services Network of Central Florida sponsors PHC events throughout Central Florida. Dozens of nonprofit agencies, faith-based groups, government agencies and businesses participate in these events. At Northland, each participant was paired with a “shepherd” so that everyone felt welcome and received assistance. Available services included medical care, haircuts, employment opportunities, substance abuse and mental health counseling, assistance with benefits, ID cards and legal issues, housing information, vision screening, hygiene kits, meals, and spiritual care.
