This strategic plan will guide efforts to address homelessness over the next five years, establishing priorities and implementing strategies to improve housing stability throughout Clark County
Clark County Community Services has initiated the development of the 2025-2030 Homeless Action Plan (HAP). This strategic plan will guide efforts to address homelessness over the next five years, establishing priorities and implementing strategies to improve housing stability throughout Clark County. The plan will go to the Clark County Council for adoption in November 2025.
The county is partnering with the Council for the Homeless, serving as the lead entity for HAP development, and ECONorthwest for consulting support. Development of the plan is guided by the HAP Steering Committee, which is comprised of key stakeholders, including local government representatives, service providers, individuals with lived experience, and community organizations. The committee is tasked with ensuring strategic alignment, monitoring progress, and advising on policy and funding priorities to address homelessness effectively.
Opportunities for public participation will be announced in the coming months. Community members, service providers, and stakeholders will be invited to provide input to help shape the priorities and strategies outlined in the Homeless Action Plan.

The community will have an opportunity to provide comment on the draft Homeless Action Plan when it is presented to Clark County Council for feedback. This public hearing will be held at least 30 days prior to the plan going to the Clark County Council for adoption.
