Continuum of Care Board

Through the infrastructure of the Continuum of Care including providers, individuals with lived experience, and subject matter experts, the Continuum of Care Board determines policy and makes decisions for providers and agencies connected to the Continuum of Care. The Continuum of Care Board plans for the region, convenes diverse stakeholders that address and are impacted by homelessness, and makes regional policy recommendations to local leaders. We stand ready to lean in, support, and provide expertise to local efforts addressing homelessness.
