ALL INside Initiative Strategic Reflections, Progress & Opportunities

Excerpt:  “ALL INside, led by the White House Domestic Policy Council, U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH), and the 19 federal agencies that make up the USICH, partnered with select state and local governments in seven sites for up to two years. The Initiative aimed to strengthen and accelerate local efforts to help people move off the streets and into homes, helping them rebuild their lives and recover from the trauma of homelessness. The stated goals of the Initiative were to: 1) Embed a dedicated federal official to accelerate locally-driven strategies and enact system-level changes to reduce unsheltered homelessness; 2) Deploy dedicated teams across the federal government to identify opportunities for regulatory relief and flexibilities, navigate federal funding streams, and facilitate a peer learning network; 3) Launch new efforts to address major barriers to housing, health care, and other support for people experiencing unsheltered homelessness; and 4) Convene philanthropy, the private sector, and other communities to identify more opportunities for support and collaboration.” (footnote omitted)
