COALITION ON HOMELESSNESS AND HOUSING IN OHIO

COALITION ON HOMELESSNESS & HOUSING IN OHIO is a nonprofit organization focused on advancing housing stability and addressing systemic homelessness through policy advocacy, community coordination, and direct service support. Its core capabilities center on homelessness prevention, housing access navigation, and cross-sector collaboration among public agencies, service providers, and community stakeholders. The organization specializes in systems-level interventions, including coordinated entry systems, housing first implementation, data-driven outcome tracking, and federal grant compliance for homelessness assistance programs. Its technical expertise lies in leveraging HUD Continuum of Care frameworks, HMIS data platforms, and trauma-informed service delivery models to improve client outcomes and operational efficiency across local housing networks. No award history is available to identify specific federal agencies or contracted work, and therefore no direct agency relationships can be confirmed. The organization’s mission aligns with federal homelessness initiatives typically administered through HUD’s Office of Community Planning and Development, but without contract data, no verified partnerships or programmatic engagements can be stated. The primary NAICS code 813319 — Other Social Advocacy Organizations — reflects its role as a nonprofit advocacy entity focused on housing equity and homelessness policy. In practice, this means the organization operates at the intersection of public policy, social services, and community organizing, with a vertical specialization in housing justice and homeless service system design. It positions itself as a thought leader and capacity builder within Ohio’s nonprofit service ecosystem, rather than a traditional government contractor delivering discrete procurement-based services. The entity is structured as a nonprofit under designation 8H and is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. It holds no federal certifications such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB. Its geographic presence is concentrated in Ohio, where it engages state and local governments, service providers, and coalitions to advance housing policy reform and resource alignment.
