Open Call for Continuum of Care Membership

The Columbus & Franklin County Continuum of Care (CoC) is inviting organizations to express interest in becoming CoC members. This open call is an opportunity for organizations committed to preventing and ending homelessness to engage in system‑level planning, coordination, and decision‑making.

Organizations interested in CoC membership should demonstrate:

• A commitment to addressing homelessness and housing instability.
• Alignment with the CoC’s mission, values, and governance responsibilities.
• Willingness to participate actively in meetings and collaborative work.

Interested organizations are encouraged to submit their interest by completing this form no later than Wednesday, March 15. Organizations that submitted a form during the previous fiscal year do not need to reapply, as those submissions will be considered. 

Call for Committee Members!

Joining a Continuum of Care (CoC) committee is a powerful way to take an active role in shaping the strategies and decisions that impact how our community addresses homelessness. Committees focus on key areas such as youth homelessness, system operations, performance monitoring, and more. By participating, you can share your expertise, represent your agency or lived experience, and collaborate with others to improve policies, evaluate programs, and advance innovative solutions. Committee members are essential to driving progress, ensuring accountability, and building a more coordinated, equitable system of care in Columbus and Franklin County.

The CoC is seeking diverse candidates across a range of characteristics, including race, ethnicity, gender, age, LGBTQ+ identity, socio-economic status, disability, and those with lived experience.

If interested, please fill out this form.

Please share this opportunity widely.
