Welcome to NCH’s brand new blog! We hope you will find some interesting posts here; posts from board members, Speakers’ Bureau speakers, staff and interns. This will be a less formal area than our website and will provide some individual perspectives on homelessness, emerging issues and what life is like here at NCH. We want this place to show the passion and desire we have to end homelessness in this country. We also want it to be equally relaxed as our real-world office space is; everyone is welcome and we’d love to hear from you! Look forward to chatting!
