17th Homeless Connect event is set for April 3 in Evansville
EVANSVILLE — The 17th annual "one day, one stop, one mission" Homeless Connect of Southwest Indiana resource fair is set for 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. on April 3 at the Old National Bank Events Plaza in Downtown Evansville.
The intent of the event is to assist "anyone in need — not just the homeless, but anyone struggling to access resources," states the Evansville-Vanderburgh Commission on Homelessness.
"Last year's Homeless Connect helped almost 700 people from the tri-state area," states the local agency. "These individuals received lunch, basic health care, eye exams, basic dental care, haircuts, legal aid, assistance with housing and utilities…
"Homeless Connect is brought to you by the Commission on Homeless with the help of many sponsors. Our event is self-funded, so we rely heavily on the generosity of these sponsors, along with public donations through the commission's new Dignity Fund."

More than 60 local agencies are expected to provide free, on-site services at the Homeless Connect event.
"These services are normally only available online or spread out in agencies across the city," states a Homeless Connect announcement. "At this event, all these services will be accessible in one place on the same day!"
The Homeless Connect announcement included a lengthy list of services that will be provided on April 3, including legal advice, employment services, haircuts and health screenings.
More information is available at www.evansvillehomeless.org. Donations can be made directly to support the Homeless Connect event at https://evansvillehomeless.org/dignityevv/.
