Joshua McCombe’s story is a powerful reminder of why housing solutions like rapid rehousing matter.

Giving Tuesday looks a little different this year. We’re seeing record levels of homelessness — more Rhode Islanders than ever need our help… and at the same time, potential federal funding cuts and policy changes could upend years of progress.
