Our community’s commitment to address homelessness was evident with recent awards totaling $4.4 million to the Anchorage Continuum of Care from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The funds will allow service providers to continue projects already underway as well as launch one new project providing permanent supportive housing for youth and young adults.
A tool to provide a path to housing for our unhoused neighbors is getting even better.
We’re talking about Coordinated Entry, a collaborative system to assess individual housing needs, prioritize those who are most vulnerable, and match them with the right housing. It results in a structured, by-name list of people experiencing homelessness in the Municipality of Anchorage.
We are near the halfway mark toward our goal of housing 150 of our neighbors by the end of April through Next Step, a collaborative pilot project in our community.
So far, 73 people have been housed. That is real progress!
Looking to spread some kindness and make a difference in the lives of our unsheltered neighbors? Join us as we assemble outreach kits for those forced to sleep outside.
