ABOUT US
Housing Innovations is a mission-driven consulting firm dedicated to ending homelessness through collaborative partnerships and expert guidance. Founded and led by nationally recognized experts with decades of experience in the field, we bring an unparalleled depth of knowledge to every engagement. We specialize in helping state and local governments, Continuums of Care, non-profits, and foundations develop and implement solutions that drive real results – from reducing street homelessness and expanding housing options to improving program performance and compliance.
​
Our approach is collaborative, data-driven, and grounded in proven practices. We were early adopters and developers of Housing-Focused Case Management and the Critical Time Intervention (CTI) models, and we continue to champion evidence-based strategies that quickly connect people to stable housing and services. Housing Innovations works side by side with community leaders and agencies, providing the tools, training, and technical assistance needed to strengthen local homeless response systems. Whether we are designing a coordinated assessment process, conducting program evaluations, training front-line staff, or crafting a strategic plan, we tailor our methods to the unique needs and strengths of each community.
​
Over the decades, our team has assisted communities across the country – urban and rural, large and small – in achieving their housing and homelessness goals. We have guided Continuum of Care collaborations through complex annual HUD funding applications, helped organizations enhance compliance and quality through on-site monitoring and training, developed gaps analysis and system assessments, and supported the launch of innovative housing programs. Our clients trust us because we combine deep policy expertise with hands-on experience, and we deliver solutions that are both ambitious and practical. At Housing Innovations, we measure our success by the success of our client communities in making homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurring.
