Evanston Alliance on Homelessness

 

Evanston, Illinois

The Evanston Alliance on Homelessness is a community-wide network that coordinates and enhances efforts to end homelessness.  Through advocacy, education and planning, the Alliance works to ensure that all members of the community can secure and sustain safe and decent housing--a basic human right.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recently announced that the Evanston Alliance on Homelessness will be receiving nearly $1 million in funding for 2010. 

Four agencies--Connections, Housing Opportunity Development Corporation, Housing Options, and YWCA Evanston/North Shore--will use these funds to continue providing housing and supportive services for those in need.
