About us:
Mayor Tim Keller convened the Homeless Advisory Group in January 2019. Group members are appointed by Mayor Keller and represent service providers, businesses, faith-based groups, neighborhood associations and those who have experienced homelessness.
The purpose of the Group is to:
- Provide community members impacted by the issue of homelessness with an opportunity to voice their ideas and concerns on how to best address homelessness.
- Create a venue for the City to share our concrete strategies for addressing homelessness with community members and hear their ideas, concerns, questions and feedback.
- Explore, develop, and act on opportunities for collaboration with community members to support the City’s strategies for addressing homelessness and its impact on the community.
