The National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty is a national organization dedicated to using the power of the law to end and prevent homelessness, as well as protect the rights of individuals experiencing homelessness. They work to expand access to affordable housing, meet the immediate and long-term needs of those who are homeless or at risk, and strengthen the social safety-net through policy advocacy, public education, impact litigation, and advocacy training and support.
The Law Center believes in the fundamental right of all human beings to a basic standard of living that includes safe, affordable housing, healthcare, and freedom from discrimination and cruelty. They have made significant progress in their efforts, including successful legal advocacy in cases such as Martin v. Boise and the #IAskForHelpBecause campaign, which has led to positive changes in cities across the country.
