LIVE ·2024 Grants ChallengeCommunity dialogues with housed and unhoused neighbors
With over 75,000 people unhoused in LA County, we know that we need housing solutions. And while there is a will to expand housing, there is resistance when it comes to housing in “our’ neighborhood. Harmful stigmas cause isolation and harm for our unhoused neighbors, so we need to change the public mindset. UHRI aims to expand its community dialogues between people with and without lived experience of homelessness to dispel myths and encourage everyone to take part in solutions.
