The document summarizes Asheville, North Carolina's efforts to end homelessness through housing assistance programs. A committee of local agencies, homeless individuals, and government representatives developed a plan to provide short and long-term housing and services to the chronically homeless. Key aspects of the plan included the Housing First model, data collection, funding from the city and county, landlord engagement, and monthly partnership meetings to identify and assist the most vulnerable individuals. After several years of implementation, over 55 formerly chronically homeless individuals were housed through public or subsidized housing with a 90% retention rate, showing the success of the collaborative approach.
