  • Campaign for Housing Justice

    The Campaign for Housing Justice program's goal in 2024 is to move 80 Guests from the Shelter to their own homes. Founded more than 40 years ago as a means to overcome the economic barriers to becoming housed, the CHJ recognizes that often the final hurdle before receiving keys is the security deposit for an apartment. When the security deposit is as much – or more – than the first month’s rent, prospective tenants find themselves without the means to cover these costs and are often forced to make the decision to remain homeless. For qualifying Guests, the CHG makes security deposit payments directly to landlords, ensuring that these newly housed individuals are on a well-planned path to secure and affordable housing.
