The good news: A January count suggests that the number of people in our community who have no safe place to sleep is dropping. More shelter space has opened, and more people are taking advantage of it. The reality: Hundreds of people remain unsheltered: Sleeping outdoors, in tents, in doorways, in vehicles and in places not fit for anyone to live. The crunch: Shelters are full, but that doesn’t mean more shelter is the answer. We need housing for those with very low incomes. Because housing IS the answer. Thanks to the Anchorage Daily News for putting a spotlight on the situation.

"People experiencing homelessness ... learn to adapt to the harshest of conditions while trying to find joy where they can. Every person in the world wants to feel as if they are not alone and that they matter — people who experience homelessness are no different." — Jonathan Cuddy Jonathan just graduated from the University of Alaska Anchorage with a bachelor’s degree in social work. He completed his practicum — hands-on experience in the field — at the Anchorage Coalition to End Homelessness. In this Q and A, you'll learn more about why his time with us, and clients, was so treasured.

Thank you to Girl Scout Troop 157! These Daisy Scouts, in kindergarten and first grade in Anchorage, are helping make our community a better place. They recently assembled snacks for our unsheltered neighbors and engaged in a lively discussion about homelessness. We appreciate their big hearts! Their troop leaders do a terrific job.
