The Greater New Haven Regional Alliance to End Homelessness will host a virtual meeting to share legislative priorities this session for ending homelessness in our region.

Housing insecurity affects thousands of families and individuals in our area seeking permanent housing. The pandemic has exacerbated the demand for affordable housing – with increased rents and the lack of affordable housing inventory. Many low- and no-income households are unable to maintain stable housing.

This breakfast meeting will allow homeless sector leaders, those experiencing homelessness, and elected officials, including Senator Martin Looney, to discuss how they are planning to address homelessness in the upcoming session.
