Meetings

Meeting Rhythms

The role of Central Illinois Continuum of Care is to support each of our 11 counties in meeting the shared goal of connecting our homeless neighbors to the housing solution that best serves them. Central Illinois is full of rich and vibrant communities, each with its own unique challenges, ideas, and approaches to the national housing crisis. We support communities working together to find solutions that work best for them, recognizing that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t always work.

The Central Illinois Continuum of Care is dedicated to streamlining and strengthening the current delivery system through even greater collaboration, partnerships, and program execution. The CoC is made up of Government entities, elected officials, nonprofit organizations, churches, healthcare providers, businesses, homeless and formerly homeless individuals, and others. For more information on how your county is working toward the shared goal of Ending Homelessness, please check their meeting minutes, and reach out to join your local Coalition.
