What if much of what we believe about homelessness is wrong?

At the No One Sleeps Outside Conference, keynote speaker Gregg Colburn will challenge us to look beyond common assumptions and examine the structural forces shaping homelessness across the country.

Gregg is a University of Washington professor, coauthor of Homelessness Is a Housing Problem, and a nationally recognized voice whose work has been featured by NPR, Bloomberg, The New York Times, The Atlantic, and more.

If you work in housing, healthcare, government, nonprofit leadership, social services, philanthropy, faith communities, or simply care about creating meaningful change, this conversation is for you.

Come ready to question what you know, hear proven ideas, and leave better equipped to help build communities where no one sleeps outside.

We’re excited to be partnering with the City of St. Charles as they explore bringing the Eden Village model to their community!

Part of our mission is sharing what we’ve learned, helping other communities build solutions of their own, and working toward a future where no one sleeps outside.

Our team is proud to work with St. Charles as they take these exciting first steps. Eden Village Springfield remains locally funded and focused right here in our community, while we share our model and experience with communities ready to create change of their own.

This is what it looks like when an idea grows...one community at a time! 💚
