They do this by:
- Developing a network of community stakeholders for the homeless.
- Educating the community regarding the needs of the homeless.
- Tracking the effects of homeless policies on the homeless population and the neighborhood resources available to them.
- Providing expertise, information and guidance to public representatives; such as supervisors and public department representatives.
