Homelessness in Northwest Arkansas is a SOLVABLE Problem!

The Northwest Arkansas Continuum of Care’s mission is ‘coordinating a community response to end homelessness in Northwest Arkansas”. We believe no one should sleep outdoors or in other places not meant for human habitation. We believe homelessness is a solvable problem through coordinated activities that match resources with needs in our community.
