Believing helping the homeless helps our community, we seek to reduce the need and cost of homeless care in Kansas City by: Providing aid with respect Providing advocacy for those seeking to leave the street Raising awareness of homeless issues in our communities Working with, rather than duplicating existing services Addressing underlying causes  AHH facilitates the path off the street by helping the homeless identify and access resources to meet immediate needs and address underlying issues. The program works with clients where they are, literally and figuratively, and uses the individual, rather than institutions as its starting point.Continuum of Care: Accompanying clients throughout their path off the street improves coordination and consistency of service.
