The 100,000 Homes Campaign

The 100,000 Homes Campaign was a nationwide initiative in the United States aimed at addressing homelessness by helping communities rapidly house 100,000 homeless individuals and families. Launched in 2010, the campaign emphasized a "Housing First" approach, prioritizing stable housing as a pivotal step toward improving people's lives. It engaged local governments, nonprofits, and volunteers to create tailored solutions, enhance resources, and promote best practices in housing. The initiative successfully demonstrated that with focused efforts and support, sustainable solutions to homelessness could be achieved, ultimately contributing to lasting community change.
