Fighting Homelessness
Nonprofit Advocacy Group
Our Mission
At Fighting Homelessness, we are a nonprofit organization committed to uncovering and addressing the root causes of homelessness. Our mission is to identify and challenge city, state, and federal policies that perpetuate homelessness, and to propose effective solutions for change. We focus on systemic issues, such as outdated criminal justice policies, inefficiencies within government agencies, the limitations of the housing first model, the scarcity of affordable housing, and the misallocation of government funds.
Our dedicated team of passionate individuals strives to make a meaningful impact in our community. We provide a range of services aimed at ending homelessness, including outreach, education, and advocacy. The support and feedback from our community are essential to our success in achieving this mission.
Donations are vital for our homeless nonprofit in fighting homelessness, as they enable our team to identify and challenge city, state, and federal policies that perpetuate homelessness.
Join us as a volunteer or advocate in our mission to fight homelessness. Your support can significantly impact the lives of those in need, offering them hope and a chance for a better future.
We believe that lasting change comes from legislative action. That's why we are committed to advocating for policies and laws that address the root causes of homelessness and promote criminal justice reform.
Lisa Marshall, in collaboration with Double Life Films, has produced a documentary focused on criminal justice reform. The film specifically addresses the challenges faced by men in the child support system who are incarcerated or experience homelessness after their release, particularly those with outstanding arrears.
