After putting out an RFP for partners to assist in spending these funds on approved homeless initiatives,we will be partnering with different organizations across Eagle County to begin assisting individuals in need.

Catholic Charities already works in this area and will be a great partner in expending these funds.

The Roaring Fork Valley already had some established services and a lot of partners working together.
