Homeless Services Consortium
of Dane County

The Education and Advocacy Committee provides education and information to the public, elected officials, and the HSC membership about homelessness in Dane County. The committee monitors proposed federal, state, and local legislation, and develops relationships with elected officials in order to educate them about the impact of existing and proposed policies on the homeless population. The committee also creates and submits an annual advocacy platform to the HSC Board of Directors for approval. The approved platform is presented to the HSC membership and guides the committee's work for the following year.
