Communications and Community Partnerships VISTA
 
 
 
Since HopeOneSource launched in fall 2015, the Washington, DC community has used this technology to support the local efforts to prevent and end homelessness by increasing access to housing, social, and career services, one text message at a time. For the second year in a row, our community's homeless population has dropped, a 7.6 percent reduction from January 2017 and a 17.3 percent reduction from January 2016, according to local government data. Hypothermia deaths have been reduced by nearly 80% as well during this period. HopeOneSource has been recognized by the White House, IEEE, and Cisco.
