How We Define Success

You are here: Home1 / Discover & Learn2 / Our Approach to Fighting Homelessness3 / How We Define Success

Functional Zero

We use the concept of “Functional Zero” to measure our progress in the fight against homelessness.

Under Functional Zero, success doesn’t mean that no one will become homeless ever again.

Instead, it means creating a systematic response that ensures a person’s experience of homelessness is rare, brief and doesn’t happen again.
