This manual focuses on assisting those who were released from correctional facilities to find secure and safe housing during the Covid-19 pandemic. With social distancing and quarantine policies, many transitional facilities have closed their doors to those who were suddenly released from correctional facilities due to Covid-19. Information on shelter closings and regional shelter coordination centers has become critical. This manual has an extensive list of helpful transitional shelters on a State-by-State basis and provides website links, phone numbers, and other helpful data.

AHP improves health and human services systems of care and business operations to help organizations and individuals reach their full potential with expertise in multiple areas.
