END HO MELE SS NE SS
T he 100,000 Homes Campaign is a national movement of
change agents working together to house 100,000 vulnerable
and chronically homeless individuals and families by July of 2014.
It serves as a supportive hub for people who are serious about
transforming our public systems and permanently altering
America's response to homelessness. Participating communities
and organizations focus on those who have been homeless the
longest and face life- threatening health conditions. Enrolled com-
munities benefit from the free support, training, and coordination
provided by Community Solutions while also discovering another
advantage in their efforts to end homelessness —one another!
Through training events, monthly webinars and social
media, more than 100 communi-
ties have already identified _ •
common challenges and
shared bold, innovative solution
Join their ranks today, and g
connected to the movement th,
is proving, once and for all, th,
we can end chronic and vulne
able homelessness in America!

behind the project by allocating 50
Housing Choice vouchers for the
clients Identified as the most vulner-
able by the Vulnerability Index."

"in a little more than two years, 1,200
of the most vulnerable people in
Washington, D.C. have been placed
into permanent supportive housing.
This contrasts with 260 during the
previous four years."
