This is one of the annual must read documents for those involved in ending homelessness.
The following is the summary of the Policy Guide as prepared by NAEH.
The National Alliance to End Homelessness has published a Policy Guide to help policymakers and advocates understand federal programs and policies regarding housing and homelessness.
