Creating a Brighter Tomorrow
For Racine County
Our Mission
The Continuum of Care for the City and County of Racine's (WI-502) mission is to coordinate organizations throughout the City and County to prevent and end homelessness. The types of services offered by the CoC and Alliance member organizations include street outreach, emergency shelter, transitional housing, rapid re-housing, mental health counseling, health care, civil legal services, and more.
Currently, federal, state, and local governments recognize the CoC as the entity responsible for carrying out the regulatory requirements found in the HUD CoC regulation. These responsibilities include planning, implementing, coordinating, and evaluating a continuum of services to prevent and end homelessness!
_______________________________________________________________
The Continuum of Care does not provide direct services or referrals for services.
We work with service providers who do provide those services, such as HALO shelter, HOPES Center, SAFE Haven of Racine Youth Shelter, and Women's Resource Center of Racine.
If you or someone you know needs services, please click on our link below for Homelessness Resources or connect with 211 Impact for resources available.

HOMELESSNESS and Community Service Providers,
please participate in this survey from the WI Interagency Council on Homelessness to help us gather information about how you handled the pandemic. Your responses will help us to formulate guidance and planning should we need it in the future.

Racine CoC/Alliance Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement
The Continuum of Care for the City & County of Racine, WI-502 (Racine CoC/Alliance) is organized to address homelessness and housing concerns throughout our county. We are committed to sharing our values of diversity, equity, and inclusion as part of our growing initiatives towards ending homelessness throughout Racine County. Racine CoC/Alliance is dedicated to the integration of diverse, equitable, and inclusive topics within its policies, plans, and procedures while aligning with the mission.
The Racine CoC/Alliance believes in generating greater awareness of diversity, equity, and inclusion in its everyday operations to address biases that exist within our marginalized populations. This includes race, ethnicity, national origin, sex assigned at birth, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion, ability/disability, veteran/non-veteran status, socio-economic status, and age.
To that end we strive to educate and support homelessness/housing service providers in order to best serve our diverse community’s needs to access housing which is safe for human habitation and affordable.

Volunteers wanted for Diversity, Equity, & Inclusivity Workgroup
The Racine CoC Diversity, Equity, & Inclusivity workgroup is looking for two or three dedicated individuals who have experienced homelessness and or participated in any homelessness or housing programs throughout Racine County over the past six years.
No experience working with workgroups. We are an informal group that works together to plan what we need to do and then do it. We need your voice and opinions.
