Region 8 News
What is Region 8?
As a part of Michigan’s statewide campaign to end homelessness, the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) has implemented a regionalized approach. The Out Wayne County Homeless Services Coalition is a member of Region 8 along with Continuum of Care bodies from the City of Detroit, Oakland County, Macomb County, and Monroe County. A regional representative from each Continuum regularly participates as a member of the Regional Council as a means for collaboration, sharing best practices, communicating to solve problems, and requesting and using state and federal resources efficiently and effectively to reach their ultimate goal - ending homelessness.
Jane Scarlett serves as the Regional Representative for the Out Wayne County Homeless Services Coalition and provides updates from the Regional Council meetings. For more information, contact Jane at 313-843-2550.
