News + Media


As a leading national voice on homelessness, our charge is to inform the debate around homelessness and transform the public view until homelessness is seen not as an unsolvable social problem but as a problem with a solution. Our weekly newsletter, the Alliance Online News, keeps our network and partners informed about breaking news and emerging issues related to homelessness.

We offer members of the media a dedicated
room on our site with press releases, updates on data and research releases, and upcoming events. Additionally, you can stay up to date with a list of daily news stories from across the country that highlight homelessness or issues affecting homeless people.

Soloist Watch Party Toolkit!
Join the social action campaign to challenge false serotypes about people who have a mental illness and live on the street. Participate in the August 4 DVD release of the movie the Soloist—the story of Nathaniel Ayers, a gifted Juilliard-trained string player whose mental illness led him to become homeless. His story illustrates strength in community connections and relationships. It is not acceptable, regardless of a person's mental health, for anyone to experience homelessness—with proper supports, housing stability can be achieved. We can all take action to solve homelessness and de-stigmatize mental illness.
