The Homeless System Simulation Game is designed to help communities understand how the homeless assistance system works. On this page you will find materials to print and facilitate your own Homeless System Simulation Game, an activity usually conducted at the Alliance's Performance Improvement Clinics.The simulation is a very simplified version of how homelessness assistance systems work, and was designed using actual data for outcomes of programs in different communities across the country. The game encourages thought and discussion regarding your local homelessness assistance system, and the impact of decisions and stratgies to reduce homelessness and meet HEARTH Act objectives. Questions regarding the game should be directed to thecenter@naeh.org.
