Homeless Awareness Poster Series
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (WDPI) developed this series of 4 12" x 18" posters, which may be customized for use in any state. If you are interested in using these posters in your state, please contact NCHE at 800-308-2145 or homeless@serve.org. WDPI has provided the electronic poster files to NCHE. NCHE has established an agreement with a local printer, who will arrange with you to print any posters in the series. Because the posters were developed with federal funds for the sole purpose of raising awareness on poverty, they may not be sold for profit.
