Support what the Coalition is doing to end homelessness

The Coalition to End Homelessness has been recognized both nationally (by the National Coalition for the Homeless and the National Alliance to End Homelessness) and statewide for providing innovative programs that effectively assist even the most chronic homeless people not only off the street, but on the road to self-sufficiency.

We Build Bridges:

Between the Homeless and Service Providers - The Coalition operates the 524-BEDS line and the Outreach Team, which provides the homeless with access to the shelters throughout Broward County. The HIP Dollar program provides the homeless with information about the available services and transportation to them. The Coalition creates the Homeless Services Directory, Homeless Survival Guide, and numerous informational documents for the homeless, social service agencies and others.
Between Service Provider Agencies - The Coalition hosts regular meetings, has four standing committees with numerous sub-committees, and provides information through our broadcast FAX service to promote the collaboration of the agencies for the benefit of homeless clients.
Between the Faith Community, Law Enforcement, Service Provider Agencies, and the Homeless - The Coalition hosts “Homelessness 101 & 202" classes to train law enforcement and other groups about available resources and alternatives to helping those in need.

All Members receive membership status in both The Coalition to End Homelessness and The Florida Coalition for the Homeless. All Members receive both state and local newsletters, immediate notification of time-sensitive issues effecting homeless people, and name recognition in first subsequent newsletter.

Sustaining Members are also listed on a prominent plaque at the Coalition office and on the front cover of every newsletter.
