Single adults comprise the most visible category of homelessness, but families with young children are equally in need and at risk, according to Paul Monge, policy director at Compass Family Services. Monge discusses how the family services program evaluates a family’s needs so it can determine what resources and programs are appropriate.
“And so what we do, being the front door, is any family experiencing homelessness or housing instability can come to us.” — Paul Monge, Compass Family Services policy director
