Lived Experience

NCH focuses our policies and programs around lifting up the voices of people who have been homeless, or are currently experiencing homelessness. We understand these to be the true experts on the issues and solutions surrounding the decades long political failure of homelessness. NCH works hand-in-hand with grassroots organizers and organizations, trains and employs advocates who have been homeless, and takes direction from the voices of those who have been most impacted by the lack of a permanent home.
