Metropolitan Homelessness Commission
The Metropolitan Homelessness Commission is Metro’s coordination and planning entity that brings advocates, nonprofit organizations, for-profit business leaders, government agencies, and the general public together to end homelessness in Nashville.
The Metropolitan Homelessness Commission hosted the fifth annual Project Homeless Connect on February 13, 2013, at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds. More than 70 agencies provided approximately 9,000 services to nearly 950 individuals and families who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. About 650 volunteers were present to assist guests through the event, help with food services, crowd control, registration, and more.
