The Task Force to End Chronic Homelessness (TECH) held a town meeting at Horace Mann Language Magnet Sunday afternoon. The task force was put together just over a year ago in an attempt to end homelessness locally.

In their year of research, they identified several gaps in services, including the lack of permanent housing with supportive services. Over a four month span in the winter, they also found that there was a bed shortage over 60% of the time.

The town hall meeting helped brainstorm for ideas they want to include in a plan to end chronic homelessness. TECH hopes the plan will lead to more government funding to help provide the services they lack.
