We are pleased to share the invitation to our upcoming Annual Gathering on Friday, May 6 (and please spread the word!).
The pandemic—and this region’s extraordinary response—has led to unprecedented resources to combat homelessness. Please join federal, state, and local officials, along with Network

opportunities to end it.
