The Ten-Year Plan public conversation: Cost of Permanent Supportive Housing will be held from 6 p.m. until 7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 19 at the Cansler Family YMCA, 616 Jessamine Street.

The Office of the Ten-Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness would like to invite the public to a public conversation at the Cansler Family YMCA. We'll be discussing the cost of permanent supportive housing. Bill Lyons, Senior Director of Knoxville's Policy and Communications Department and Jon Lawler, Director of the Ten-Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness, will present for the first half of the meeting. The second half will be reserved for questions and conversation related to the subject of costs associated with permanent supportive housing.

This is the second in a series of similar public conversations.

We would like to keep these meetings concise, to respect the time of attendees. We will offer them on a regular basis, and invite presenters who can speak to their areas of expertise and to the roles that they play in support of the TYP. We'll open up the floor for questions and conversation on the specific issue being addressed, and we'll ask attendees for ideas about subjects they'd like for us to address in future public conversations.
