We are excited to announce the launch of a monthly newsletter to keep Sacramento County residents informed about the work of Sacramento Steps Forward (SSF) and the Sacramento Continuum of Care (CoC). We will also feature data on addressing homelessness and ways to participate in conversations about homelessness.
At SSF, we are committed to sharing knowledge, addressing racial inequities and supporting actionable data-driven best practices. Our work is focused on driving system-level change.
Each month, we hope to bring you highlights of current initiatives, newly available data, and information on resources that can be helpful in addressing homelessness.
Our convener role brings key agencies working in homelessness to a shared table. Through partnering, we build community-wide cohesion and collaboration to solve the homeless crisis in Sacramento.
We use our data and analytics to inform solutions-oriented decisions about homelessness. The CoC’s newly-formed Racial Equity Committee is building new insights, partnerships, and strategies to end racial inequities in our homeless response system. We are innovating new initiatives to expand access to services for people experiencing homelessness.
We cannot do this work without the support of our partners. Creating a lasting end to homelessness requires a community-wide commitment.
Sacramento continues to come together in tremendous ways to respond to COVID-19, provide shelter, basic living essentials such as food and water, testing and vaccines, and housing for Sacramento's most vulnerable residents. This last year has shown us how much we can accomplish when we are aligned and focused.
We will continue building this collective momentum as we take meaningful steps forward in partnership with our community.
We look forward to sharing the work of SSF, our CoC, and our partners.
Sincerely,
