The major causes of homelessness in the United States include a lack of affordable housing, rising rates of poverty, eroding job opportunities, diminishing access to healthcare services, and declines in public assistance - now exacerbated by the escalating costs of childcare and food.
The Coalition's Advocacy efforts seek to raise awareness of homelessness and housing at the local, state and national levels by advocating for public policies that seek to prevent and end homelessness. Please stay connected to our advocacy efforts and sign up for Legislative Action Alerts.
