2010 THP-Plus Institute: Re-Visioning Transitional Housing in the Era of AB 12

The THP-Plus Implementation Project is sponsored by the John Burton Foundation for Children, the California Department of Social Services and the Corporation for Supportive Housing. By the date of the 2010 THP-Plus Institute, AB 12 will either be signed into
state law or back to the legislative starting blocks. Either outcome has serious implications for THP-Plus. Please join us on Monday, November 8th for an important day of conversation and training about THP-Plus. Eight workshops will be provided, broken into a policy track and a practice track. If passed, considerable coverage will be provided to AB 12 and its implications for THP-Plus.
