Mission
The mission of Help the Unhoused at VCU is to advocate for the vulnerable individuals who are experiencing the hardships of homelessness in the Richmond community. Passive means of aid are only a temporary solution to supporting these individuals. Help the Unhoused strives to focus more on active means of aid, such as an emphasis on educational and occupational opportunities to encourage self-sustainment for long-term results.
