Ending Homelessness Among All Other Individuals

Last updated on November 30, 2018

That response must include both specialized homelessness services and nontargeted resources — housing, employment, education, and health care — that can help people achieve housing stability and go on to pursue opportunity for themselves and their families.

What's Driving Progress

With support from Council agencies, communities are:

• Developing strong coordinated entry systems to link families and individuals to the most appropriate assistance.
• Building collaborations to integrate nontargeted resources in the areas of housing, employment, education, health care, and benefits.
• Assessing how to increase the amount of rental housing that is affordable to people with the lowest incomes.
