National Coalition for the Homeless, Inc.

The National Coalition for the Homeless is the positive result of a committed group of social activists who in 1981 won landmark litigation to protect the rights of homeless people by ensuring homeless individuals have access to shelters and access to the polls. Today, the National Coalition for the Homeless (NCH) continues to expand on its fundamental commitment to social justice by providing a national platform for “first person” homeless voices. NCH believes in a world where everyone has a safe decent, affordable and accessible home. NCH‘s mission is to prevent and end homelessness, while ensuring that the immediate needs of those experiencing homelessness are met and that their civil rights are protected. To that end, NCH works towards creating the systemic change necessary to end homelessness, through grassroots organizing and public education around issues of housing, healthcare, economic justice and civil rights.
