Mission

We lead and align a coalition to administer an effective Homelessness Response System, centered in racial equity, informed by the needs and expertise of people experiencing homelessness, and accountable to systemically marginalized communities.

About

A home is the foundation we all need to lead healthy, fulfilling lives and build thriving communities. We believe everyone deserves the safety and stability that a home offers. As the backbone organization for Austin/Travis County’s Homelessness Response System, ECHO is committed to ensuring housing is a human right for everyone who lives in our community. ECHO does not operate housing programs or provide direct services. Our job is to help coordinate the organizations who do. Together, we can make homelessness rare, brief, and one-time.
