The Anger Management for Homeless Women Project Proposal and Program Design

New Beginnings is submitting this letter of intent to The Parsons Foundation to determine your interest in providing seed funding for our new social services program, The Anger Management for Homeless Women Project. New Beginnings is an agency that is concerned with providing services and advocating for people that are homeless in the city of Los Angeles. The mission of New Beginnings is to develop and coordinate sources for support for homeless persons. In our research for possible funding sources, we discovered your foundation also has a strong interest in homeless persons and their plight. Our proposed project mirrors your own goals for helping the homeless of Los Angeles and ensuring they receive comprehensive services. The board of directors is comprised primarily of program directors that meet monthly to report on program progress and to discuss ways to coordinate limited resources. In 2000, New Beginnings served more than fifteen hundred homeless with nearly one-third of them being single women. Most had limited incomes and more than half were without shelter. By providing education and housing, The Anger Management for Homeless Women Project will help end the problem of homelessness for this target community. The New Beginnings programs are helping to ensure a healthier lifestyle and provide an alternative to institutionalization. Our primary goal is to help people that are homeless to gain the skills and coping mechanisms necessary to lead more fulfilling lives. One frequently identified need in the county is for qualified social workers to ensure that the homeless receive comprehensive care to improve problem-solving skills and resolve conflicting emotions. Hiring a team of six social workers will ensure that each homeless person is served appropriately. Our proposal to the Parsons Foundation would be for start-up funds
