A New Hub for Homelessness News, Resources, and Training

If you’ve ever tried to keep up with HUD, USICH, NAEH, NLIHC, and the rest of the acronym brigade, you know the experience borders on Olympic-level endurance. Every week brings a flood of announcements, deadlines, data standards, and “urgent” emails — many of which are critical, some of which are duplicates, and far too many of which are “Correction: please disregard our last message.”

This space was built to cut through that chaos. Instead of forcing you to track 10 different websites, decode 100 acronyms, and search your inbox for that one PDF you swear was important, we’ve created a streamlined hub. Here, you’ll find news organized into categories that actually make sense:

• Announcements & Deadlines that keep your calendar intact

• Funding & Grants so you don’t miss opportunities

• Policy & Legislation updates with real-world implications

• Research & Data translated into usable insights

• Training & Best Practices that go beyond theory

• Local Spotlights to show what’s working in communities like yours

And here’s the kicker: we pull together federal announcements, national advocacy updates, state-level guidance, new research briefs, training invites, toolkits, and even webinar recaps — so you don’t have to.

In short: timely information, minus the acronym fatigue.

Beyond the News: A Learning Hub

Information is necessary, but training is transformative. That’s why we’re building a subscription-based Learning Management System (LMS) designed specifically for homelessness professionals.

This isn’t training for training’s sake. It’s practical, role-specific learning that helps frontline staff, case managers, and agency leaders actually do their jobs better. Expect interactive tools, certification pathways, and content designed to be as engaging as it is useful.

At present, the LMS is in pilot mode across Florida and Alabama. But in the coming months, subscriptions will open nationally as we expand our library of field-tested, high-value content.

Pulling It All Together

The homelessness response system is complex, and staying up-to-date often means juggling websites, endless email blasts, and PDFs buried in inboxes. This hub changes that equation.

Our aim is simple: a single, trusted source for news, resources, and training — so you can stop chasing updates and get back to the work that matters most.
