Homelessness Ends With Action

Threshold CoC coordinates the collective response to housing justice for Douglas, Sarpy, and Pottawattamie Counties. We lead a coalition of community partners who work directly with people experiencing homelessness, allies who amplify our work, and change agents who advocate for policy reform. We work together to ensure homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring.

Attend, volunteer, or sponsor Project Connect on Wednesday, October 9th from 10 AM - 3 PM at Baxter Arena - a FREE one-day event for our neighbors experiencing housing instability.
