Montgomery County 100,000 Homes Campaign Community/Media Debrief

Montgomery County 100,000 Homes
Campaign, part of the national 100,000 Homes Campaign, will prioritize those most in need of
permanent housing and improve access to permanent supportive housing and
services for homeless individuals. Results from surveys
conducted on homeless individuals during Montgomery County 100,000 Homes
Campaign Registry Week on November 3-7 will be announced at the Campaign’s
Community/Media debrief. In addition, formerly
homeless individuals will share their stories, County Executive Isiah Leggett, and council members will speak. They will speak about how
the Campaign is changing lives, the reality that people living on the street
die 25 years prematurely than the rest of society, how permanent housing is
more cost effective than hospital, jail and shelter recidivism, and how
community members can help make a difference. If
