About the event
Housing providers are crucial partners on the path to recovery, but even well-meaning programs risk harming those they help. This training will explore how the power dynamics inherent in housing programs can make participants vulnerable. How do we know when housing program expectations tip into exploitation? What program requirements lead to labor trafficking? This training will walk through several case examples to provide clear guidance on what not to do, as well as highlight some promising practices. Participants will gain a better understanding of how to screen for safe housing options, what practices to avoid, and how to spot red flags.
