On the Front Lines of Fighting Homelessness
The Provider Alliance to End Homelessness is an alliance of nonprofit agencies united by a shared commitment to serve the needs of all who experience homelessness and to break the cycle of poverty. We are informed by best practices and community-developed solutions, ranging from prevention and emergency services to the production of affordable housing and ongoing supportive services.
We advocate to increase the level of funding dedicated to homelessness in Los Angeles County (all of its 88 cities), from local, state, federal, and philanthropic resources. These investments should be distributed in ways that dramatically decrease the number of people living and dying on our streets. We insist that current sources of public funding be maintained and additional resources from all sectors must be secured to expand the insufficient amount that is already being spent on homelessness.
The Provider Alliance provides a unified voice across the sector of organizations working to end homelessness. We sponsor new initiatives that educate the public, build strategic partnerships, share the stories of those we serve, and engage the entire community on homelessness issues. We also strive to share information among agencies to help inform our own practices.
As nonprofit service providers and housing developers on the front lines of this crisis, the Provider Alliance has valuable expertise on what is effective to address and resolve homelessness in Los Angeles County. We work with public officials and governmental agencies as an active partner in designing initiatives, policies and systems related to homelessness, as well as ensuring the successful implementation of these responses. Real solutions must take into account the different needs and wide diversity of everyone – young and old, families and individuals – who finds themselves without a home.
