On November 20th 2019, The Housing and Homeless Coalition of CNY hosted presentations and a panel of people who’ve experienced homelessness in our community to inform the public about our progress and current challenges in the fight against homelessness and housing insecurity in 2019. Our panelists, who are also all members of the HHC’s lived experience boards, gave moving stories of their experiences with housing insecurity and homelessness.
