At the Southern Conference on Homelessness and Housing, we shared information, strengthened connections, and explored opportunities to address housing instability and homelessness across Alabama and beyond. Now we have an opportunity to turn that momentum into action.
A Call to Action
During our time together, Mary Frances Kenion from the National Alliance to End Homelessness (NAEH) called us to a National Day of Action to advance housing policy and secure homeless funding. We enthusiastically applauded our commitment to advance statewide action through the Low-Income Housing Coalition of Alabama and our participation in the National Day of Action on November 18th.
Now is the time to ACT to let our collective voice be heard!
Join LIHCA, our partners, and the NAEH in the National Day of Action on November 18, 2026.
How to Engage
First, register for the National Day of Action. When you register, you will be connected with LIHCA our partners and advocates throughout Alabama to advance homeless and housing policy.
Second, once you are registered, LIHCA will follow-up with …. specific actions like reaching out to your Congressional representatives on this importance of housing resources, tools and resources to enhance your advocacy, and connection to other advocates in your community. Together, we will let our voices be heard!
Keep the Conference Momentum Going!
One of the strongest messages from our conference was that meaningful change requires collaboration, informed engagement, and sustained commitment. Whether you join the National Day of Action, share these resources, engage policymakers, or bring local experiences into the discussion, your participation helps keep housing needs visible.
Our conference may have ended, but our work together continues. Thank you for your commitment to stronger communities and expanded housing opportunities across Alabama and the South.
