FY2024 IMPACT REPORT
JULY 1, 2023 - JUNE 30, 2024
On any given night, in our three-county area, approximately 2,220 people are staying in a homeless shelter, and 1,100 people are sleeping on the streets or another place not meant for people to live.* While the total number of people experiencing homelessness is down more than 60% since 2011, it is still not acceptable.
Solving homelessness isn’t easy. It takes many partners working together – and one agency to coordinate them. That’s CFTH.
We’re a nonprofit organization and the backbone of Houston’s solutions to homelessness. Forged out of an alliance between public entities and private organizations, we function as a collaborative hub to respond to homelessness, using the power of collective impact.
We act as a catalyst, uniting partners and maximizing resources to move people experiencing homelessness into permanent housing with supportive services.
