Community Shelter Board has been awarded a $6 million demonstration grant from the U.S. Department of Housing to combat youth homelessness in our community.

With 1,300+ youth age 24 and younger served in Columbus shelters in 2017, it is a top priority for many of our housing organizations to ensure homelessness among youth is rare, brief, and one-time only. This grant will help put the systems in place to work toward those goals.
