🌟 El Paso Coalition for the Homeless (EPCH) The El Paso Coalition for the Homeless (EPCH) is a membership-driven alliance dedicated to ending homelessness in our community. As the Lead Applicant for the El Paso Continuum of Care (CoC), EPCH plays a central role in coordinating and supporting a network of agencies, organizations, and individuals committed to providing housing, services, and life-changing support to those experiencing homelessness. Our mission is rooted in collaboration, innovation, and advocacy. We analyze existing programs and services to identify gaps and opportunities, ensuring that our community delivers the most effective and compassionate assistance possible. EPCH serves as the principal advocate for the homeless population in El Paso, amplifying their needs and voices while facilitating strategic partnerships among service providers. In addition to our leadership role within the CoC, EPCH proudly offers diversion services—a proactive approach designed to prevent homelessness before it begins. Through personalized, client-driven support, we help individuals and families facing housing instability find safe, sustainable alternatives. Whether it’s reconnecting with family, securing short-term financial assistance, or accessing transportation, our diversion program empowers people to choose their own path forward. We believe that education and awareness are key to systemic change. EPCH is committed to informing the public about the realities of homelessness and the resources available to address it. Through research, outreach, and community engagement, we strive to ignite meaningful change and build a future where homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring. Together, with your support, we can continue to strengthen our community and bring hope to those who need it most.
