The city chooses to conduct counts annually in to visually count homeless individuals. Results of this year’s order to quickly identify and respond to homeless population trends. annual Homeless Count showed an overall reduction in The annual Homeless Count would not have been possible without street homelessness: the hundreds of volunteers who took part. Find out how you can get involved at smgov.net/homelessness. • The point-in-time count found 742 individuals, a decrease from 780 (5%) in 2013. • The street count was 346, a decrease of 9% from 380 in 2013. • Once again, there were no families observed on the street. Decreasing street homelessness is a key measure of the city’s Action Plan to Address Homelessness, and this year’s reduction was achieved through enhanced coordination in several different areas. City staff worked with local service providers to engage individuals, coordinate services, identify appropriate housing and ensure that local resources are dedicated to individuals on the city’s by-name Service Registry. Also, last year the Police Department utilized the Homeless Liaison Program (HLP) to identify the most chronic and long-term homeless individuals in the downtown area and link them to housing and services. Results show that these strategies were highly effective, and contributed to an overall reduction in street homelessness. The Homeless Count was hosted by St. Monica’s Catholic Community.

  • Resingularizations of the Avant Garde in East Austin, Texas a Dissertation
    East of the Center: Resingularizations of the Avant Garde in East Austin, Texas A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Carra Elizabeth Martinez IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Sonja Kuftinec, Advisor May 2016 Copyright Carra Elizabeth Martinez May 2016 i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the support of the Department of Theatre Arts and Dance at the University of Minnesota. My committee generously provided their time and attention and feedback: Dr. Sonja Kuftinec, Dr. Michal Kobialka, Dr. Margaret Werry, Dr. Cindy Garcia, and Dr. Josephine Lee. My fellow graduate students filled my days at the U of M with laughter, conversation, and potlucks. Thank you Elliot Leffler, Jesse Dorst, Kimi Johnson, Eric Colleary, Stephanie Walseth, Will Daddario, Joanne Zerdy, Rita Kompelmacher, Mike Mellas, Bryan Schmidt, Kelly McKay, Kristen Stoeckeler, Hyo Jeong Hong, Misha Hadar, Rye Gentleman, David Melendez, Virgil Slade, Wesley Lummus, and Cole Bylander. Both Barbra Berlovitz and Lisa Channer provided so many pathways for me to stay in touch with the creative process inside Rarig. I will now always want to play both Agamenon and Clytemnestra in the same production. My fellowship at Penumbra Theatre kept me attune to the connection between practice and theory. And last but not least, thank you to my University of Minnesota Theatre Arts and Dance students, who were so willing to take risks and to work and to think. A special thanks goes to the Bootleggers. I always smile when I drive by any and all Halloween stores.
