"We operate in silos, but we’re dealing with people, we’re not dealing with widgets."

- Travis Sandefur, Director of Housing and Homeless Services, Washoe County, says one of the biggest strengths of Washoe County’s approach is breaking down institutional silos between housing, law enforcement, courts, health care, and behavioral health. He argues that person-centered coordination is essential to creating real pathways out of homelessness.
