How we’ll end street homelessness
Achieve a quality By-Name List
By knowing who is on the streets, people stop being “the homeless” and start becoming people we know.
Line up affordable housing
Advocate for a greater investment in permanent and supportive housing for those who need it, giving people dignity and a home.
Provide ongoing support
Be there every day for those who need assistance, and provide the services that people need in order to stay housed.
Connect people to the community
Work collaboratively with health-care services and agencies to ensure homelessness is rare, brief and non-recurring.
