Carrying More Than We Know: Pregnancy & Homelessness | Community Chat

Share this Event

Learn how homelessness during pregnancy affects women and families, and what local organizations can do to support stability.

Join us for our March Community Chat, a virtual conversation exploring the unique challenges women face when they experience homelessness during pregnancy.

This discussion will look at the barriers to stability that can arise during pregnancy, the impact those challenges can have on both parent and child, and the role community-based organizations play in providing support, care, and pathways toward housing.

We’ll be joined by Lisa Wood, Chief Executive Officer of Casa Teresa, who has led the organization for more than a decade and helped expand programs that support women and families in need.

The conversation will be moderated by Becks Heyhoe-Khalil, Executive Director of United to End Homelessness at Orange County United Way.

Whether you are new to this topic or already engaged in this work, this conversation will offer insight into an often overlooked experience of homelessness and help deepen understanding of the services and support systems families need to move toward stability.

Hear from a local leader, reflect on the realities facing women in our community, and explore how we can work together to support healthier, more stable futures for families in Orange County.
