The Coalition for the Homeless (Louisville) is a Louisville-based nonprofit organization dedicated to preventing and ending homelessness in the city. It functions as a coordinating hub for about 30 member agencies, aligning housing, food, clothing, health care, counseling, and legal aid for people experiencing homelessness. Through advocacy and community education, it aims to address root causes and improve the efficiency, affordability, and humanity of homeless services, while assessing community and agency needs to guide long-term solutions. The organization was founded in 1984 after deaths on Louisville's streets and has since acted as the lead advocate for the city's homeless population. It is based in Louisville, Kentucky, and relies on a network of partner agencies to deliver a range of services to the homeless. A recent development is its January 2025 collaboration with The United Way of Cass-Clay Inc. to develop a regional plan aimed at reducing inflow into homelessness and increasing exits within 90 days.
