In 2022, Housing Assistance served over 6,200 clients through education, stabilization, prevention and services for the homeless. Funds raised through this year's Walk for Hope will connect our neighbors to safe, stable housing that serves as the link to healthy families and neighborhoods and thriving communities across the Cape and Islands.
