That’s the number of our fellow West Virginians who won’t have a home tonight.
That’s the number of our fellow West Virginians who won’t have a place to go to safely maintain physical distance during the pandemic--and it's a number that will grow as the economic impacts do.
There are thousands more homeless students, taking into account shifting or substandard home environments, where a child may have temporary housing with a relative, live in a motel/hotel, or in other unstable environments.
It doesn't have to be this way.
Our plan to end homelessness would:
🔷 Invest in affordable housing options for people in recovery, veterans, traumatized children, people living with mental illness, victims of abuse, and seniors.
🔷 Reactivate the WV Interagency Council on Homelessness
🔷 Explore ways to expand affordable housing options for college/vocational students

Here's how you can help make this plan law:
1) Share this plan with your friends right now.
2) Donate to our campaign, so this plan can become law.
3) Set up a call with Stephen Smith, candidate for Governor.
