Our Promise
House Everyone STL (HESTL) is a non-profit established to lead transformational system-wide change in ending homelessness in the St. Louis region. We are not a homeless services provider.
Our Promises
HESTL WILL
- Implement existing best practices and models as evidenced by successful outcomes in other major U.S. cities.
- Galvanize the business community through partnerships and strategic and operational alignment with a strict focus on outcomes.
- Listen and respond to community needs to facilitate systems change in the homeless services sector.
- Partner, collaborate, and execute policy initiatives with government, business, academia, congregations, and private citizens.
- Innovate and create focused solutions for ending homelessness in our city and region.
- Fundraise and continuously identify and support services gaps that arise in the system.
- Create system efficiencies helping homeless services agencies continuously improve and further their impact.
HESTL WILL NOT
- Operate homeless shelters or provide direct client services.
- Repeat and/or implement policies not aligned with the greater community.
This approach has been successful in communities throughout the United States, with one-time funding leading to sustained resourcing and system change.
