Since launching in June, Greensboro's Housing First Plus program has provided stable housing to five individuals experiencing chronic homelessness. Officials are working to relocate three others within the next week.

The shift comes as the city moves away from its Doorway Project to sharpen its focus on addressing the challenge.

The proposal would consolidate funds from the county and cities of High Point and Greensboro to address priorities like shelters.

Debra Rabalais will assist the county in advancing strategies to prevent and reduce homelessness.

The Winston-Salem nonprofit is hosting a gathering Monday to remember those who died while experiencing homelessness.

The shift comes as the Trump administration looks to move away from a housing-first model for tackling homelessness.

Bethesda’s Executive Director Chris Leab says the move will allow the organization to save money on administrative costs not covered by the grants.

Local churches partnered with the city last year to shelter those in need during the winter months.

A coalition of business owners in downtown Winston-Salem raised the money that was needed to keep the cash-strapped Day Shelter at Bethesda Center for the Homeless open through the end of the year.

Guilford County Commission Chair Skip Alston says the center is part of a larger effort to address the root causes of homelessness.
