Building Belonging: Understanding Homelessness Together
2025-08-28 10:00 - 11:00 | Dr. T. K. Gregg Community Center, 650 Howard St, Spartanburg, SC, 29303, United States
Join us for Building Belonging: Understanding Homelessness Together—a community-centered event focused on fostering meaningful dialogue and connection around two critical issues: homelessness and housing in our local area.
We’ll begin with a brief 10–15 minute introduction to A Place to Call Home, where we’ll share who we are, what we do, and how our programming supports those experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity. From there, we’ll open the floor for a dynamic, discussion-driven session.
This event is intentionally interactive—your questions, ideas, and experiences are at the heart of it. We’ll explore the complex landscape of housing, discuss what’s happening locally, and create space for a deeper understanding of the systems, challenges, and opportunities facing our community.
