Welcome!
Webinar today at Pacific - 12 PM, Mountain - 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM:
Handling Challenging Situations: What Do I Do Now? Part II of II, presented by Leah Esguerra and Kathleen Lee. A partnership between the San Francisco Public Library and the local Department of Public Health resulted in the placement of a social worker at the Main Library to link users to housing and social services. Eventually a job-training component was added, providing opportunities to develop marketable skills for people who had been homeless. Meet and hear the story of a library outreach worker who helps herself by helping others.
