What Is TA?

In addition to Policy Academies, in-State Academies, and National Learning Meetings, the United States Department of Human Services (HHS), the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the United States Department of Labor (DOL), and the United States Department of Education (DOEd) partnered to develop and provide technical assistance to State and local policy makers to strengthen and expand their ability to improve access to mainstream services for people who are homeless.

Technical Assistance (TA) is the provision of direct or indirect support to increase the capacity of individuals and/or groups carry out programmatic and management responsibilities. TA included:

  • Helping a State team assess when assistance might be needed
  • Arranging for peers to share common experiences and helpful resources
  • Improving access for, and participation of, impacted populations in the process
  • Providing a specific skills training for State team members, such as priority setting, and working with State teams to create process-related strategies to assist with the implementation of action plans.

NOTE: TA is no longer being offered under this completed project.
