Gain insights on cross-cultural communication about homelessness, and learn about challenges & innovative approaches from community leaders.

Join us on October 24 for an eye-opening discussion on communicating about homelessness across diverse cultural communities in Orange County.

The way homelessness is perceived and addressed can vary greatly depending on cultural backgrounds and languages spoken. In this crucial conversation, you’ll hear from leaders working directly with Arabic-, Spanish-, and Vietnamese-speaking communities, as they share insights on:

🌐 How these communities view and relate to homelessness

🗣️ The unique challenges in raising awareness and providing support

💡 Innovative approaches to bridge cultural divides

We will be joined by Ameera Basmadji, Director of Fund Development for Access California Services; Miriam Zuniga, Director of Adult Programming and Lead Facilitator of the CLC for Unidos South OC; and Dung Hua, Director of Programs for Vital Access Care Foundation (VACF).

Becks Heyhoe-Khalil, Executive Director of United to End Homelessness℠, Orange County United Way, will moderate this crucial discussion.

Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your understanding and join the conversation on building a more inclusive, compassionate response to homelessness in our community.
