Colleagues,

If you have not been following the development of this Framework, I encourage you to do so - especially if you are on the Continuum of Care, any homelessness or housing working group, a local government employee, an elected official, a funder, a provider, an advocate.

We must be prepared to make hard choices. This Framework will help.

Be safe,

Maureen

housingequityframework.org - Introducing the Framework

The Framework for an Equitable COVID-19 Homelessness Response provides guidance to communities on how to use a wide range of federal funding sources, including CARES Act programs, strategically across key public health and economic recovery strategies to meet public health goals, increase housing stability, and prevent future increases in homelessness – all with a racial justice and equity lens.
