About us
The National Alliance to End Homelessness is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization whose sole purpose is to end homelessness in the United States. We use research and data to find solutions to homelessness; we work with federal and local partners to create a solid base of policy and resources that support those solutions; and then we help communities implement them. Our strength is that we are an outcome-driven organization. Starting with our name and continuing with how we choose the work we do, allocate staff time, and use our resources, we focus on one thing: ending homelessness. The Homelessness Research Institute at the National Alliance to End Homelessness works to end homelessness by building and disseminating knowledge that drives policy change.

The Alliance expresses its deepest sympathies to the families, individuals, communities, and businesses impacted by the most recent natural disasters that hit the Southeast. During these crises, it is an essential responsibility of elected officials to focus laws and funds on a strategic and inclusive disaster response and recovery. The National Alliance to End Homelessness urges state and local officials across impacted communities to: 1) coordinate with their homelessness lead agencies to ensure everyone has a safe place to go after evacuation or as they exit from disaster shelters, regardless of housing status prior to the disaster; 2) identify additional resources to meet both the urgent and long-term needs of people experiencing homelessness as part of an equitable recovery effort; and 3) suspend any state or local ordinances, such as public camping bans, that could disrupt response and recovery efforts. With the compounding crises of natural disasters and homelessness, the Alliance urges decision makers across varying levels of government to commit to humane and evidence-based practices that save lives.
