1. /bring it home/
A campaign to close the funding gap for the
Homeless to Homes Shelters

2. o Homeless individuals often lack the financial, emotional and
family resources to obtain stable housing on their own.
o The Homeless to Homes plan calls for an improved local
emergency shelter system with five service-enriched
facilities in Hamilton County, OH.
o The Homeless to Homes Shelter Collaborative is in the
home stretch of fundraising and needs $2.7 million to
complete the transformation of the shelter system.
o These improved shelters will serve as a springboard,
providing the specific services that each client needs to
assist them out of homelessness and into housing.

3. o Reconfigured existing shelter capacity better meets the
needs of homeless individuals. The new shelter system will
provide:
• specialized shelter for women
• specialized shelter for young adults
• expanded faith-based shelter capacity for men
• improved substance abuse treatment capacity
• specialized services for veterans
• safe shelter with a step-up model
o Higher quality and increased case management
o Expanded daytime services

o Decrease in the length of time that people are in shelter
o Increase in the number of people successfully returning to
permanent housing

sufficiency

will be incomplete, and

a truly great city if we don’t
deal with this issue of
homelessness.”
