2022 Alaska Housing and Homelessness
Virtual Advocacy Day - March 29, 2022
The 2022 Alaska Housing and Homelessness Virtual Advocacy Day will be a one-day virtual event convening agencies and advocates from communities across the state to share the positive impacts of existing housing and service programs as well as share with elected officials the specific needs in their region.
In addition to advocacy efforts, attendees will hear from coalition staff on the status of housing and homelessness across Alaska, receive updates from national housing policy experts, and gain access to a number of work sessions focused on specific housing issues unique to Alaska.

** United Way Walk 4 Warmth
------------------------------------------------------------
March 1 - 14, 2022
Walk 4 Warmth is a fundraiser to help our most vulnerable neighbors stay warm and housed by providing direct support to families and individuals struggling to cover basics such as paying rent and utilities. Since the beginning of the pandemic, over 9,000 of our neighbors in need have been helped with rent, mortgage, and utility payments. Two years later, federal pandemic relief is running out, but the pandemic continues to take its toll. Recovery is far away for many and hardships are mounting for many hard-working but low-income families in our city. When we unite to thrive, we can ensure all our neighbors continue to stay warm and housed this winter.
