The DC Council is set to vote on the FY27 budget on Tuesday, 6/9! As it stands right now, this budget contains large spending pressures in critical housing programs and includes no new housing options to help our chronically homeless neighbors to exit homelessness. NOW is the time to tell our elected officials that we care about ending homelessness in DC and they must prioritize housing to end homelessness in the FY27 budget.
📣 Take Action with The Way Home: Ending Chronic Homelessness in DC Call the DC Council and tell them they must prioritize funding housing vouchers in the FY27 Budget! https://www.thewayhomedc.org/take-action
