The Capital Area Alliance for the Homeless (CAAH) holds the fundamental belief that everyone, no matter how deprived in circumstances of housing and necessities is valued, entitled to dignity and respect, and deserving of community assistance and the opportunity to pursue a life of self- sufficiency. We work to advance the provision of quality services for homeless and at-risk persons, to improve data collection, to educate the public, and to develop and promote responsive policies to prevent and end homelessness in the areas we serve. We implement our mission through our One Stop Services Center; collaborative community partnerships; collecting and optimizing data on homelessness, housing, and best practices; and by connecting providers, government agencies, and people in need across Louisiana.
