About Us
The National Homelessness Law Center is a team of attorneys and advocates dedicated to using the power of the law to prevent and solve homelessness and to protecting the rights of people experiencing homelessness.
What We Do
We work to solve homelessness through policy advocacy, public education, impact litigation, and advocacy training and support. We believe all human beings have the right to safe and affordable housing, healthcare, and freedom from discrimination and cruelty.
