To ensure outreach workers throughout the county have the tools to work effectively with people who are unsheltered, and help them move into housing, the Outreach Standards contain training requirements in specific areas.

One of the training areas is Motivational Interviewing. The Regional Task Force on Homelessness has partnered with UCLA’s Integrated Substance Abuse Programs to provide Motivational Interviewing training for outreach workers who do not have it available through their own organizations. Outreach workers only need to attend one training. The trainings will be 3.5 hours in length and are highly interactive – attendance is limited.
