Ending Homelessness
During the course of a year, nearly 1.5 million Americans will experience homelessness for at least one night. Periods of homelessness often have serious and lasting effects on personal development, health, and well-being. Our challenge is to expand proven approaches that have worked in communities across the country, develop new service innovations and technologies, and adopt policies that promote affordable housing and basic income security.
Community members, policymakers, practitioners, and researchers must join hands in a concerted effort to tackle
The Grand Challenge to End Homelessness.
Together we can
