Implementing the 10-Year Plan to End Homelessness

Through a public-private partnership, the Homeless Initiative works to end chronic homelessness and reduce all types of homelessness over the next decade by investing in resouces in a coordinated, sustained effort that addresses the underlying causes of homelessness.

The Homeless Initiative values community involvement, collaboration, inclusive and creative problem solving.  Wtih that foundation of values, the community can come together to evaluate and implement best practices for supporting people who are seeking stable housing. Through this process, the community can report and evaluate outcomes, highlight best practices, and identify new resources, which results in a strengthened  homeless service system and ultimately reduces the number of people who experience homelessness in Asheville and Buncombe County.
