Philadelphia Committee to End Homelessness

In 2009, PCEH partnered with the Early Head Start program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Together, through PCEH's SafeHome Philadelphia initiative, we have ensured that parents can focus on the health, education and well-being of their children from the stable foundation of a home.

Please join us on April 10th for an afternoon of great food, friends and poker at the Poker Players with a Heart Texas Hold'em Tournament.

First prize is valued at $5,000 and proceeds benefit the homeless.

Sheila Crowley, President of the National Low-Income Housing Coalition, called PCEH's 10 Year Plan to End Homelessness "a conscience rattling examination of our obligations, our opportunities and our options. Take a look Mr. President and Mr. Secretary," she wrote, "what we have to do together is all here. Housing is the linchpin of the plan." Click on the image to check it out.

Sometimes when you clean out your desk, you find "treasures'. Philadelphia's own Pulitzer Prize winners -- Signe Wilkinson and Tony Auth-- along with their colleagues across the country captured then the irony and tragedy of homelessness in this richest country in the world. Twenty five years later, they are still too true. We can do better. Click on the image to the left to see more.
