What We Do

Homelessness is caused by a complicated set of factors, from the
critical shortage of affordable housing and living wage jobs to our
society's lack of care for people experiencing homelessness.

To address this complexity, CCH employs policy experts, development
specialists, community organizers and legal advocates. This wide range
of expertise enables us to take the fight to end homelessness wherever
it needs to be fought, from the streets of Chicago to the halls of
local, state and federal government.
