With domestic violence a major driver of homelessness for women -- up to 57 percent of women experiencing homelessness report domestic violence as the immediate cause -- it makes sense for Haven to work closely with our partners in the Regional Housing Coalition in Gallatin County.

👀 Numbers of unhoused folks are down in Bozeman for the first time in years - a sign that regional investments in housing, shelter and supportive services are making a difference.
Those investments include:

✅ improved services at those facilities, and excellent collaboration among partners
“No one organization can solve Bozeman’s housing issues,” said Mayor Joey Morrison. “It takes people across different sectors and organizations all pushing in the same direction to have an impact, and we’re finally starting to see the results of those years of collaboration. We’ve made meaningful progress on shelter space and affordable housing, and it’s because we’ve been working together.”
Regional partners are welcoming the decline as evidence that sustained investment and collaboration are making a difference—and we all also know we need to keep this progress going.
