Homeless Plan
For information contact Laura DeRosier 218-725-5236
St. Louis County and the city of Duluth initiated a planning process in 2005 to end homelessness. A diverse group was assembled to create the End Homelessness in Ten Committee (EHIT). Members of EHIT represented urban and rural areas, private and public sectors and a wide range of disciplines, including mental health, chemical dependency, human services, youth programs, anti-poverty agencies, domestic violence, employment and training, housing developers, schools, corrections, homeless shelters and services, and the faith community. Eight members of the committee experienced homelessness first-hand or have been part of the safety net for relatives and friends who have become homeless.
“Heading Home St. Louis County – A Ten-Year Plan to End Homelessness” is the result of this extensive planning effort. The plan was adopted by St. Louis County on March 27, 2007 and the city of Duluth on March 26, 2007.
