Policy Platform

Each year our Board of Directors adopts our annual advocacy agenda with the express intention of pushing forward policies that will lead to the end of homelessness. The Platform is developed by an all-volunteer community panel that meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month from 6:30-8:30pm via Zoom. Any member of the community may join by calling (000) 000-0000.

The KYB Center ensures a voice for people who are homeless in community and policy coalitions throughout our region. We are currently part of the following coalitions: 

• Community Drug Safety Program
• LGBTQ Rights Coalition
• Policing Partners Community Coalition

Community Education Campaign

Our community education program teaches people about the impacts of homelessness, how to prevent homelessness, and where to find services. We provide presentations and printed information, as well as visibility messaging via billboards and bus stops. To request a presentation, please call (000) 000-0000.

 

Candidate Forum

Every year, the KYB Center hosts a candidate forum with other community partners to allow the community to ask questions of importance, and particularly about issues related to housing security, economic security, mental health, and policies related to ending and preventing homelessness. The candidate forum is held on the 4^th Thursdays in October from 7:30-9:00pm at the KYB Center. Candidate answers to questions are then posted online. To participate, or for more information, please call us at (000) 000-0000.
