Chicago Coalition for the Homeless (CCH) organizes and advocates to prevent and end homelessness based on our belief that housing is a human right in a just society.

Founded in 1980, CCH is a non-profit organization that works with people hurt by homelessness. CCH seeks leaders among homeless and formerly homeless people to advocate for ways to end homelessness.

We focus our efforts on ending homelessness by addressing root causes, including the lack of affordable housing, the lack of living-wage jobs, the lack of health care, discrimination and violence.

CCH believes that homelessness is a solvable problem and has had many victories over the years. We will continue to fight until every person has a place to call home.
