Many thanks to Secretary Marcia L. Fudge, Richard Cho, HUD Senior Advisor for Housing and Services, USICH Director Jeff Olivet for their leadership, and to the HUD team, Mayors, and other local leaders for their participation, determination and success. Let’s keep going!

So much great work by so many people across the country to make this happen. Don’t let anyone tell you that what you’re doing isn’t working. Now we need to scale up housing and services and turn off the faucets that cause folks to become homeless in the first place.
