As established in Governor Pritzker’s Executive Order 2021-21 and codified into law in HB 2831, the Community Advisory Council on Homelessness (the Council) is tasked with advising the Illinois Interagency Task Force on Homelessness on its mission to achieve “functional zero” homelessness in the State of Illinois. The Council consists of organization leadership from homeless service provides across the state and people with lived experience.

What we did:

• Brave Path Strategies created a process to engage the Council and additional partners and experts to develop a set of 2024 recommendations to be presented to the Interagency Task Force. 
• We facilitated meetings and engagements to garnet input and expertise from Council members and partners that informed the 2024 recommendations
• We drafted the 2024 recommendations report (designed by Concentric Design)
• We developed presentation materials to present the recommendations to the Interagency Task Force on Homelessness
