Coalition for Homelessness Intervention and Prevention of Greater Indianapolis View Charity Profile

The Coalition for Homelessness Intervention and Prevention of Greater Indianapolis (CHIP) is a nonprofit agency created in 1996 to advocate for homeless and near-homeless people in Indianapolis and to help organizations that serve them work together to foster an effective, coordinated community-wide approach toward ending homelessness. By coordinating efforts, lives can be turned around, cities can be made healthier, and dollars can be stretched to better serve more people.

CHIP is not a provider of services to homeless and near-homeless persons. Rather, it is a focal point and a resource for service providers. As the lead entity for implementing the Blueprint to End Homelessness, our responsibilities include: resource development on behalf of priority projects; community education; capacity building and technical assistance; and, fostering coordinated service delivery and systems integration.
