NLIHC is hosting weekly national calls on “Coronavirus, Homelessness, and Housing” each Monday afternoon. These calls feature leaders from Congress, the administration, state and national partners, local homeless service and housing providers, and NLIHC sharing the latest information on how federal, state and local governments are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, its impact on people experiencing homelessness and low-income households, and how you can help advocate for needed resources. The next call is today (Monday, April 6) at 2:30 to 4:00 p.m. ET. Register at: https://tinyurl.com/ru73qan
The NLIHC-led Disaster Housing Recovery Coalition (DHRC) will continue to advocate for a broad array of resources and protections, including emergency rental assistance and eviction prevention assistance, a national moratorium on evictions and foreclosures, and emergency funds for homelessness service providers, housing authorities, and housing providers, among other recommendations. For more information, see DHRC’s full list of recommendations, which will continue to be expanded and refined.
NLIHC is also maintaining a regularly updated COVID-19/Housing and Homelessness News and Resource page here.
