The rates of homelessness in Clark County reflect the lack of housing accessible to people with low or limited incomes. There is an increased need for supportive services to help people stabilize and maintain their housing and the need for strategies that target the disproportionate rates of homelessness among people of color compared to white people. Collaboration and increasing resources are key to solving homelessness.
