Federal Resources for the 2024 National Conference on Ending Homelessness and Capitol Hill Day
The U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) is the only federal agency with the sole mission of ending and preventing homelessness in America. Our council, which represents the collective power of 19 federal agencies and is led by Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, sets and implements the federal homelessness strategy. At the state and local level, USICH has senior regional advisors throughout the country who help state, local, and tribal governments, as well as nonprofit and private organizations, achieve the goals of All In: The Federal Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness.
