Ending Homelessness

Ending Homelessness in America


Nearly one-third of people who are homeless have mental illnesses. With the appropriate treatment, care and support, they could live successful, productive lives in the community. Unfortunately, most people who are homeless lack access to the services they need.

But by organizing public education and advocacy campaigns, communities across the country can implement state-of-the-art programs that will help people move off the streets and into homes and apartments.

Use these fact sheets from the NMHA website to educate your community and legislators about the need for improved and expanded services:

  • Homelessness: Reviewing the Facts
  • Fact Sheet on Children and Homelessness
  • Homeless Programs Funding
  • Ending Homelessness for People With Mental Illnesses and Co-Occurring Disorders
  • Links to Information on Homelessness

Together, we can eliminate homelessness.
