Join the Homeless Trust Fund Campaign

The Mercer Alliance is partnering with hundreds of organizations across New Jersey to establish county-based homeless trust funds to support the implementation of local ten year plans to end homelessness. Homeless trust funds offer a critical source of new revenue to house the homeless and prevent those at-risk from ever losing their homes. In New Jersey, state-enabling legislation is required to enable counties to generate revenue for the purpose of establishing and maintaining a homeless trust fund.
