Education and advocacy: the coalition's education and advocacy program seeks to raise public awareness of homelessness and to advocate for public policies to prevent and end homelessness. Through web-based outreach and information exchange, statewide educational conferences, local community forums, grass-roots efforts, media relations, speakers, bureau programs and political advocacy, the coalition works to foster long-term strategies to end homelessness through coordinated systems that increase the supply of affordable and supportive housing, livable incomes, and access to health, mental health and substance treatment services for the most vulnerable citizens.
