Efforts to make homelessness rare and brief are broad and varied, just like the problem itself. However, successful practices that help individuals out of homelessness and reduce it across entire communities often remain unseen. This film aims to change that.

Community Solutions collaborated with filmmakers Dewi Sungai and Jason Houston (eight16creative) to document the stories of how six U.S. communities are measurably reducing homelessness as part of the Built for Zero movement. This series showcases what it looks like to take a solutions-focused approach to homelessness and highlights the work of those playing critical roles in these communities.

The recent Supreme Court decision in Johnson v. Grants Pass presents a choice: communities can either criminalize homelessness or implement proven, compassionate solutions. This series provides pragmatic, actionable guidance for those seeking humane and cost-effective ways to address homelessness.

“Until We’re All Home” is a mosaic of stories about solving homelessness, told by people working to tackle this complex social problem, one day at a time. They are neighbors, formerly unhoused individuals, local leaders, social workers, veterans, landlords, and young adults, all playing a role in this crucial endeavor.

Collected over six months, this film offers an unseen perspective on one of our society’s most pressing issues. It captures the power of collaboration and resilience in solving homelessness and underscores our profound need for empathy and community. Each episode of “Until We’re All Home” follows a different city and storyline, providing a brief overview of each city’s key themes and participants.
