We also want to recognize the incredible work of the Philadelphia Anti-Human Trafficking Coalition. Their collaboration continues to strengthen how Philadelphia prevents, identifies, and responds to trafficking, ensuring survivors are supported every step of the way.

HOPE 220 represents a shift in how we respond to homelessness. Not just shelter, but a Homelessness Solution Center focused on connection, coordination, and outcomes. Our FY27 One Philly, One Future budget proposal expands @PHLCityHomeless’ model with increased investment in outreach, housing placements, and supportive services. Because solving homelessness requires more than a place to stay —— It requires a path forward. 📍 220 N. Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19102

"It creates a pathway toward stability for individuals who are working to rebuild their lives." This week, we hosted Philadelphia supporters to celebrate a $500,000 donation from PHL Cares and the official opening of Hope 220.

The solution center will work to support those experiencing chronic homelessness, and provide safe and dignified access to essential resources, such as on-site medical care. Thank you to everyone who has come alongside us to make monumental movement in this cause!

Yesterday, in partnership with @phillymayor, we opened HOPE 220, our first housing #SolutionCenter — offering a safe resting space and vital resources for people needing emergency shelter. Thank you, @salarmyphilly, PHLCares, and many others working to end street homelessness!

During National Human Trafficking Prevention Month, we had the opportunity to present for Divisional Headquarters! Staff gained valuable insight into the realities of trafficking, the work being done to prevent it, and how we can all play a role in awareness and response.

Thanks to everyone who came together to support those impacted by the snow emergency and enhanced code blue. Our staff and volunteers worked hard to provide shelter and essential supplies! Warming centers and shelter intake sites are still open, visit phila.gov/GetWarm
Emergency response is not one department. It’s multiple agencies and partners moving together with one goal of public safety. A thank you to the Salvation Army for supporting the Emergency Operations Center and warming sites during Enhanced Code Blue and the City’s snow response.
