**********************************
New HOMELESS list, January 1995
[Please repost this announcement to other lists or persons
that might find it of interest.]
It is our pleasure to announce the introduction of a new list --
HOMELESS. HOMELESS is a global electronic discussion list focused on the
subject of Homelessness. The topic is multidiciplinary in its scope, and
it is our hope that this electronic forum will provide a place in which a
variety of viewpoints on homelessness can be discussed.
In the HOMELESS list you are likely to encounter communication from
people that are currently homeless, from people that are currently
'homed', and from people from 'all-walks-of-life.' The HOMELESS list
invites any person with an interest in homelessness to participate in our
exploration of the topic and the issues that surround it. We hope that
the HOMELESS list will provide a network where a wide range of information
may be shared.
The HOMELESS list is maintained through the list's host,
Communications for a Sustainable Future (CSF), located at the University
of Colorado at Boulder. The HOMELESS list is an unmoderated and open list,
so all messages posted to the list (Homeless@csf.colorado.edu) will
automatically be redistributed around the world.
In addition to the discussion list, HOMELESS also maintains a global
electronic archive of information relating to the topic. Currently there
are frequently asked question files, bibliographies, and academic papers in
the archive. The archive is accessible via ftp and gopher at
csf.colorado.edu, under Progressive Sociology. It is also accessible via
the mosaic, lynx and other web browsers at http://csf.colorado.edu/psn.
As the list coordinator for HOMELESS, Dee Southard
(southard@oregon.uoregon.edu) invites you to subscribe to HOMELESS and to
contribute to the discussion and to the archive.
