In Macon County, Illinois, the local Continuum of Care (CoC) has embarked on an ambitious 100-day challenge aimed at preventing homelessness. This initiative is part of a broader national effort to engage communities, landlords, and various stakeholders in dialogues that focus on keeping individuals and families securely housed.

Typically, the CoC acts as a central hub, providing essential resources to those grappling with homelessness within the county. However, this new challenge shifts the focus toward prevention, addressing homelessness before it begins. The CoC’s proactive approach emphasizes the importance of community involvement in tackling this pressing issue.
