Housing and Justice System Connections

CSH works to break the cycle of justice-system involvement and institutionalization. We advance innovative programs and models, systems change, and policy advocacy so that individuals impacted by the justice and carceral systems can access affordable housing and supportive services.

Lived expertise is central to all the work we do. By embedding lived experience in our work, we centralize the voices of those most impacted by homelessness and involvement in systems to help design solutions that address the root causes of homelessness and enable dignity. CSH programs such as Speak Up! aim to raise the voices and wisdom of people with lived experiences of homelessness, justice involvement, and mental illness.
