The county has been working with Council for the Homeless as the lead entity that engages in LHHP development. ECOnorthwest is the consultant group that will assist in executing the LHHP.
The LHHP Steering Committee is a collaborative body responsible for guiding the implementation and oversight of the Local Homeless Housing Plan in Clark County. Comprised of key stakeholders, including local government representatives, service providers, individuals with lived experience, and community partners, the committee ensures strategic alignment, monitors progress, and advises on policy and funding priorities to address homelessness effectively.
LHHP guidelines are available on the Washington State Department of Commerce website.
More information on development of the county’s LHHP including a timeline and list of steering committee members is available on the county website at https://clark.wa.gov/community-services/local-homeless-housing-plan.

Council for the Homeless is the last group any local government ought to be listening to. All they are is a front group for the massive Homeless Industrial Complex with their greedy snouts in the public money feeding trough. Show me one single example of anything this group has actually accomplished, other than to increase to local migratory vagrant population.
Where is the Council for the Taxpayers??
Long past time to shut this nonsense down for good.
