Many people in the area experience homelessness each year.  People experience homelessness for many reasons, including loss of a job, health care needs that have exhausted all financial resources, domestic violence, mental illness and substance abuse.  Many of those without shelter are children.  Many have jobs.  Most individuals and families are forced into homelessness by emergencies or other events, and most  emerge from homelessness in a few months with some assistance.
 
 
NEOCAA serves as the lead agency for a coalition of shelters, social service agencies, public officials and interested citizens who work to serve the homeless, assisting them to return to independent lives.  They also work together to assist with rent and utility payments to prevent families from falling into homelessness.
