Housing

Philanthropy Ohio and its members strive for a just and vibrant Ohio through policywork that supports housing stability and reduced homelessness. Housing advocacy efforts focus on long-term, systemic issues where philanthropy’s voice can inspire, resonate and transform communities. When advocacy work and public policy aligns with funding priorities, Philanthropy Ohio members can have an even greater impact. By leveraging our collective expertise, authority and resources, we can scale advocacy solutions more effectively.

Philanthropy Ohio supports access to fair and equitable housing programs 

Philanthropy Ohio works in partnership with strategic partners to educate public officials about the role of philanthropy in advancing stable, equitable housing and ending homelessness in Ohio. Moving people into permanent housing through proven best practices is critical to ensuring homelessness is rare, brief and one-time. The Philanthropy Ohio Housing Stability affinity group is a member-driven coalition focused on policies related to housing stability and reducing homelessness in Ohio.

Philanthropy Ohio convenes funders who support housing stability work, and:

  • Builds relationships and engage directly with policymakers, including the Governor’s Office and Administration, key state agencies and statewide organizations;
  • Educates on the most current research, trends and housing stability policies at the state and federal levels; and
  • Advocates for policies that prevent and end homelessness and provide safe and affordable housing to Ohio’s most vulnerable populations.
