Since the launch of the HT2026 Community Plan much has
been learned, and political, economic and community
landscapes have changed.

HT2030 envisions a system that moves people from crisis to
stable housing quickly and for the long term
•It is a framework for coordinated, strategic action – not a spending
plan or implementation handbook
•It focuses on the homelessness response system, while
acknowledging other systems and economic and political forces
that impact the homelessness response system’s success
•It sets goals that are achievable with sustained local investment,
stable federal and state partnership, coordination across
jurisdictions, and balanced implementation across pillars
➢Reduce overall homelessness by one-third
➢Reduce unsheltered homelessness by 50%
