No one has a greater stake in seeing their community succeed than community members. No effort will succeed over the long term without the community’s support.
That’s why listening to and acting from the voice of the community has been a foundational principle at Beyond Housing from the beginning.
Children who don’t know where they will sleep at night struggle to learn. Parents without jobs can’t maintain stable housing. Communities that can’t provide stable housing, access to healthy food, economic development, and adequate services also lack resources to provide a strong education. The barriers to success for families and communities continue to multiply.
Our 24:I Initiative is a perfect example of how Beyond Housing meets communities where they are to meet the full range of needs they identify.
Beyond Housing is a convening organization. Using the collective impact model, we bring civic leaders, targeted nonprofits, and corporate partners together to accomplish more for their communities than they could ever hope to achieve working alone. This innovative framework provides a backbone of proven best practices to catalyze lasting benefits for the community.
