What We Do

Policy Advocacy

We work with community leaders, policymakers, and partner organizations to advance fair housing laws, equitable development, and stronger social safety nets.
CHI pushes for systemic reforms that:

  • Expand affordable housing development
  • Prevent discrimination and displacement
  • Protect renters and low-income families
  • End policies that criminalize homelessness

Change doesn’t happen by chance — it happens through policy.

Public Education & Awareness

Knowledge is power. CHI provides educational resources, campaigns, and storytelling that help the public understand the real causes of homelessness — and how to help solve them.
Through articles, webinars, and community discussions, we challenge harmful myths and promote empathy-driven solutions.

We believe awareness creates advocates — and advocates create change.

Community Engagement & Coalition Building

We bring together nonprofits, faith-based groups, businesses, and individuals to create a unified voice for housing justice.
CHI organizes and participates in public forums, roundtables, and advocacy events nationwide — ensuring that the voices of those with lived experience guide every solution.

Together, we can build communities that don’t just house people — they empower them.

Research & Accountability

We gather data, analyze policies, and share insights that inform decision-makers and strengthen community action.
By spotlighting gaps in housing access and equity, CHI drives accountability at every level of government.

Evidence is our foundation. Advocacy is our structure. Humanity is our purpose.
