ECHO's 2024 Annual Report is available now! Learn more about the steps we took with our community in 2024 to build a future without homelessness.

The Austin Homelessness Advisory Council (AHAC) began meeting at ECHO in June. ECHO will coordinate the group's biweekly meetings to provide feedback on projects and priorities from the City of Austin, ECHO, and service provider partners.

On one night in January, hundreds of people set out in cars and on foot in the early morning hours to deliver a message to people without homes: You count. Explore what we learned about homelessness in our community during the 2025 Point in Time (PIT) Count.

Our community is transitioning to a new vendor for our Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) this fall, and in the short term it will mean some changes to training and onboarding schedules. As the HMIS Lead Agency, ECHO will continue to provide updates as the transition happens.
