Mission

At Fighting Homelessness, we are a dynamic nonprofit organization dedicated to uncovering and addressing the root causes of homelessness. Our mission is not only to identify and challenge the city, state, and federal policies that perpetuate homelessness but also to drive impactful change through innovative, evidence-based solutions. We target systemic issues such as outdated criminal justice policies, government inefficiencies, the limitations of the Housing First model, the scarcity of affordable housing, and the misallocation of resources.

Our passionate and dedicated team at Fighting Homelessness is committed to making a lasting impact on our community. Through comprehensive outreach, education, and advocacy efforts, we are steadfast in our mission to break the cycle of homelessness. We believe that meaningful change is a collective effort, and our community's support and active engagement are crucial to achieving our mission.
