The Housing Is Clearinghouse will help you and your organization foster collaboration and partnerships across systems and sectors.
We are most effective when we break down silos and work together.

The Clearinghouse helps facilitate coordination between experts, encourages collaboration, expands partnerships, and serves as a virtual gathering place for communities of practice across systems and sectors. Everyone is welcome, from researchers and health executives to educators and community leaders.
