Built for Zero is a movement, a methodology, and proof of what is possible. Over 100 cities and counties have committed to measurably ending homelessness for entire populations. Using data, these communities have changed how local homeless response systems work and the impact they can achieve. Together, they are proving that we can build a future where homelessness is rare overall and brief when it occurs.
To date, 14 communities have ended veteran homelessness, 5 have ended chronic homelessness, and at least 20 more have a achieved measurable reductions in the number of people experiencing homelessness.
