Are you a person with lived experience of homelessness who’s interested in strategic direction and decision-making? Check out this new opportunity from Minnesota’s Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)!
Minnesota’s HMIS Governing Board is seeking two people who have lived experience and expertise with homelessness to serve on their board. These are paid positions.
The leadership of people with lived experience and expertise is essential in the work to prevent and end homelessness in Minnesota. In late 2024, the Minnesota HMIS Governing Board voted to expand to include two new board seats specifically reserved for people with lived experienced and expertise with homelessness (one from Greater Minnesota and one from the Twin Cities Metro area). Please share this opportunity with candidates who would be a good fit and might be interested in this opportunity!
The deadline for applications is Wednesday, August 13.
The National Alliance to End Homelessness is developing a series of blogs covering the context and potential impacts of President Trump’s harmful July 24, 2025 Executive Order on homelessness. Find the ongoing series at https://endhomelessness.org/blog/
To date, publications include:
Crossroads to Justice is the strategic plan of the Minnesota Interagency Council on Homelessness (MICH), bringing a housing, racial and health justice approach for people facing homelessness in Minnesota to guide the work of state government.
The plan is being co-implemented by 14 paid Implementation Consultants, all people with lived experience of homelessness representing different experiences and different parts of the state. Learn more about these incredible leaders – and give them a shout-out! - on our Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn accounts!
