7/21/24 The Challenge of Homelessness in Downtown Eau Claire

                                                                 Chippewa Valley This Week


   

Who are the homeless in downtown Eau Claire? What are the issues and challenges they and businesses face? These and other matters were addressed by a great panel at the Eau Claire Chamber's July 19th Eggs & Issues event, which also included updates on a proposed Day Resource Center and Street Ambassadors for the downtown. Panelists we hear from include Chris Hedlund, Program & Education Director, Hope Gospel Mission; Katie Hulbert, Housing & Family Services Director, Western Dairyland Economic Opportunity Council; Billie Hufford, Project Management Coordinator, City of Eau Claire; and Erin Klaus, Co-Owner, Tangled Up in Hue and Downtown Eau Claire, Inc(DECI) Communications & Promotions Coordinator.
