Federal dollars that support housing for our neighbors most in need STILL haven't been released by HUD.
This delay could disrupt more than 120 households in Anchorage alone. The funds in the Continuum of Care program cover rents and supports for those who have been experiencing homelessness.

When a camp is closed, belongings often are lost in the move, including those that provide shelter and warmth.
Street outreach remains essential in these times, for survival and connection.

Let's do the smart thing and invest in housing.
