As part of the national 100,000 Homes Campaign, Austin held its 100 Homes Campaign Registry Week November 7–9, 2011. Over the course of three mornings, more than 80 volunteers took to the city’s streets, homeless shelters, hospitals and parks to find homeless individuals and gather information from them using a Vulnerability Index survey.
The top 100 most vulnerable individuals have been identified, and the community is working to house them, as part of a CSH-authored Permanent Supportive Housing Strategy that seeks to create 350 new supportive housing units by year-end 2014.
