CAPITAL AREA ALLIANCE
FOR THE HOMELESS
MISSION STATEMENT
Capital Area Alliance for the Homeless (CAAH)
holds the fundamental belief that everyone, no matter how deprived in
circumstances of housing and necessities is valued, entitled to dignity,
respect, and is deserving of community assistance and the opportunity to achieve
a life of self-sufficiency.
The mission of the Capital Area Alliance for the Homeless is to provide a
continuum of care network for the homeless in the Capital Area (comprised of the
civil parishes of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Iberville, Pointe
Coupee, West Baton Rouge, and West Feliciana) through a coordinated body of
diverse organizations and individuals. This body will address issues of
homelessness in the capital area parishes; affect the development of resources
to meet the needs of the homeless; provide for a formal assessment of homeless
needs; and educate the community on homeless issues, needs, and priorities.
