Homelessness Can Take Many Forms

It can mean sleeping in a place not meant for human habitation, like a car or abandoned building or camp; but it also includes people living in motels or with another family member due to a lack of resources or alternative accommodations. 

Our clients include families, veterans, mentally ill, disabled, youth aging out of foster care, and more. Homelessness can happen to anyone—it takes just one major setback to start a cycle that can end with help from our community. We can solve this problem with your support.

The Homeless Coalition of Polk County is grateful to the GiveWell Community Foundation for their contribution through the Impact Polk Grant. The vital support strengthens our efforts to connect individuals and families with the resources they need to achieve housing stability and rebuild their lives.
