Our mission is to house, support and advocate for people experiencing homelessness.

We know that with close, individual advocacy and support, men, women and families experiencing homelessness achieve housing stability.

We are committed to Housing First: house people quickly, then provide services as needed.

more about Simpson Housing

Advocating for people experiencing homelessness
During the last legislative session Governor Pawlenty line-item vetoed General Assistance Medical Care, fully eliminating the program effective April 15, 2010.

The House of Representatives was unable to override the veto. Then on June 16th, the Governor announced additional cuts through his unallotment, which included closing down the GAMC program on March 1, 2010.
