Description

Endeavors will be hosting a hybrid panel discussion in conjunction with Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week Join us on November 17th, 2021 at 11:00am CT as we speak to subject matter experts in the field of hunger and homelessness to learn the statistics behind these categories, how individuals came to be in this situation, and what our communities across Texas are doing to combat hunger and homelessness in youth, Veterans, and vulnerable populations. The purpose of this event is to connect community providers and community partners regarding issues of hunger and homelessness across our Endeavors' communities. The panel discussion will include featured speakers, topical breakout sessions, and a panel of content experts to discuss issues of hunger and homelessness across our communities. CEUs will be provided to LMSWs, LPCs, and LMFTs in Texas. In addition to the panel discussion, we have partnered with various San Antonio based artists to bring you our "Faces of Strength" art gallery. We will display 6 original pieces of art that reflect the stories of 6 individual clients of our programs. These pieces of art will be available for silent auction, where all proceeds will go to Endeavors programs.
