Thank you for your work to serve the most vulnerable Americans without housing. You, more than anyone, know that the nation’s homelessness crisis is at a historic high, and that our communities shoulder the tragic impacts of this crisis every day. With 770,000 people experiencing homelessness — 275,000 people unsheltered on our streets — HUD is dedicated to supporting local solutions that reduce unsheltered homelessness and increase long term stability and self-sufficiency. The status quo is unacceptable for every American, with or without a home.
