Together we are ending homelessness. Andrew is the first medical respite resident at Sojourner House. He went from discharge from MacNeal Hospital following a cardiac procedure to signing a lease on his own apartment in 60 days.

2019 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends, In our Annual Report, we take a moment to highlight the mission advances we are making and the donors who are helping to make them possible. However, since we ended our 2019 fiscal year, our world has been upended. The COVID-19 crisis is changing the way we offer and deliver services and challenging us in unimaginable ways. The crisis has amplified the racial and health disparities that exist in our country, and we are deeply concerned about the threat of a prolonged economic downturn which could force many more households into homelessness. In these extraordinary times, ending homelessness means addressing it at all levels - we strive to prevent homelessness whenever possible, we respond to the crisis, and work to stabilize those facing homelessness with housing. This is only possible through a wealth of community and strategic partnerships and dedicated donors, aligned around a common goal of making homelessness rare, brief, and nonrecurring. In this new environment, we have quickly pivoted our service model to ensure the health and safety of our clients, volunteers, and staff. We are preparing for what the future holds by: • Reinforcing our prevention services to mitigate future homelessness; and • Reimagining our emergency shelter model to most effectively served those living on the streets. We will navigate these new challenges while continuing our commitment to delivering solution-focused programming that ensures our most vulnerable community members still have access to vital services and support. While the future is uncertain, we will continue to navigate this unchartered territory and are extremely grateful to all who have supported our efforts. Sincerely,

Lynda Schueler Jim Heininger Executive Director President of the Board of Directors Housing Forward invests in bold, Ending homelessness means addressing comprehensive approaches to ending homelessness at all levels and through homelessness.
