ABOUT US
Founded in 2006 by Gina Amato and Carol Harvey, the Catawba Area Coalition for the Homeless (CACH) emerged as a vital organization in addressing homelessness in Chester, Lancaster, and York counties. CACH took on the essential role of advocating for safe, affordable housing while working closely with local agencies to enhance their understanding of available resources and facilitate effective referrals. With a primary focus on homeless prevention, CACH recognized the urgent requirement for emergency shelters in the community. As we continue to grow, our aim is to expand our capacity to meet the increasing demands and combat homelessness in the region.
OUR MISSION
To strengthen our homeless response system by fostering collaboration and delivering effective solutions that reduce the duration of time individuals and families experience homelessness in Chester, Lancaster, and York counties.
