Housing instability is a far-reaching public health crisis in the United States, and in communities across the globe. During the cold months of winter, it takes on an even greater level of urgency as snow, ice, and harsh weather prevent access to vital resources for those experiencing homelessness. It’s critical that we understand the housing issues affecting communities—and how we can each take action to support nonprofits working to provide this service.

- Housing insecurity challenges that people are facing across the country
- Community-driven solutions that nonprofit organizations are implementing
- The support these organizations need from skills-based volunteers
