Please join the National Alliance to End Homelessness from 3-4:30pm EST on December 2 for a discussion on the recently released Contingency Planning Toolkit to help you navigate difficult decisions when responding to the NOFO. *Please note that this webinar will not provide a breakdown of the NOFO. The Contingency Planning Toolkit includes three components: the Landscape Assessment, the Decision Support Tool, and the Project Consideration Checklist. Together, they give communities a structured way to hold fact-based conversations grounded in information from local agencies.
Communities need an accurate, shared understanding of how funding realignments will affect housing and other safety-net programs. The impact of the latest NOFO will undoubtedly cause further disproportionate harm to certain groups. Ending homelessness comprehensively requires addressing and reducing these inequities (including on the basis of disability, race, gender identity, age, and location) by making services more responsive to diverse community needs and centering the experience, concerns, and ideas of people with living and lived experience of homelessness in local planning efforts.
