A message to the Health Care for the Homeless Community


Health Care for the Homeless community - 

As 2023 winds down and we enter the holiday season, Health Care for the Homeless is facing financial challenges. I’d like to share those challenges with you, as well as the steps we’re taking to make sure we’re here long-term for clients, staff and community.

Please take a few minutes to watch. 

I will keep you updated on changes that we are making because you are important partners in this work – to end homelessness, to help people through the most difficult times in their lives, and to create a more compassionate community.

Consider these actions:

Our vision for the future is clear: Everyone is healthy and in a safe home in a just and respectful community. It’s you, our community, that calls us into being and we cannot make it through without you. 

Thank you, as always, for your partnership and support.
