About Us
Our Mission
The Downtown Congregations to End Homelessness (DCEH) works together to transition from managing to ending homelessness and poverty through advocacy, education, support of Heading Home Hennepin (HHH) and building relationships with the homeless and near homeless, congregations, volunteers, and community organizations.
Our Goals
- Plan educational and volunteer opportunities that inform congregants about issues pertaining to poverty and homelessness.
- Develop and implement effective strategies for coordinated advocacy around issues pertaining to poverty and homelessness.
- Aid congregations in the shift from managing to ending homelessness in their own individual and cooperative program planning including direct service.
- Foster effective communication among congregations and in the broader community about DCEH’s collective work as an interfaith network.
