Suggested outreach services include clothing and blanket distribution, hot chocolate and fruit distribution, high risk identification log, referral services, housing, mental health, clinics, and escort and transportation services. In-housing services include a community kitchen, food club, advocacy services, health clinics, rights and services workshops, community access, and job club.
