Our Plan

The Heartland Continuum of Care (HCoC) and community partners worked with consulting groups Homebase and LathanHarris, Inc. to develop a community-wide strategic to address homelessness in Springfield and Sangamon County. We hope you will join us in the collaborative work needed to implement the plan and reach functional zero by 2028.

You can view and download Springfield & Sangamon County’s 2022-2028 Strategic Plan to Address Homelessness here.

Check out the October 2022 Citizen’s Club presentation for more information on the plan and homelessness in Springfield and Sangamon County.


Funding for the strategic planning process was provided by the City of Springfield, Community Foundation for the Land of Lincoln, Memorial Health, HSHS St. John’s Hospital, Sangamon County, Springfield Housing Authority, SIU School of Medicine, and United Way of Central Illinois.
