4 We Value Community Engagement
Community Engagement was a critical
component of our Homeless Strategic Plan
Consistent with these values, we launched a
survey to solicit community feedback for the
name of the shelter/navigation center
Many of the responses were duplicative or
similar in theme
We collaborated with Mercy House to
develop a list of top-five names that capture
the purpose of the shelter/navigation center
