We are pleased to announce our first-ever Twitter chat! It is themed around the concept that homelessness is solvable.

What is a Twitter chat?

A Twitter chat is a twitter-based public discussion on a specific topic. Pre-written questions act as prompts for discussion. These are tweeted using a hashtag (#BfZChat, in this instance) so participants can follow the chat/discussion and participate if they wish.

Date and Time of #BfZChat

Wednesday, August 17, 1:00-2:00 p.m. ET | 10:00-11:00 a.m. PT
