A monthly digest of CT CAN End Homelessness initiative updates, including committee and subcommittee reports, upcoming meetings, events, and more. If you have important information about Connecticut's homeless response efforts to share, please contact us at info@cceh.org.

Community Engagement Events

CCEH is hosting Community Engagement Events in each CAN to provide an overview of the CT CAN End Homelessness campaign, recruit new members, gather insights to amplify frontline voices. These events are open to all within the homeless response system. We value diverse perspectives from leadership, front-line staff, and individuals with lived experiences, as diversity across race, gender, age, ability, and background strengthens solutions. By uniting these voices, we create a collective impact that fosters a more inclusive, effective, and equitable approach to preventing and solving homelessness in Connecticut. We hope to see you there!
