Data isn't a cold, distant thing. In the context of homelessness, data is a form of care. We create it with care, treat it with care, and organize our efforts to care by taking it seriously.

GOAL OF THE SLARCH DATA COMMITTEE

We aim to improve our homeless service system performance by using data to enable strategic action. We work at a regional level to integrate and visualize data and develop skills to act on data. We hope to engage in data-action cycles that strategically allocate, increase, and organize resources to accomplish achievable objectives.

WHAT IS SLARCH?

SLARCH is the St. Louis Area Regional Commission on Homelessness. It is a collaborative effort of people from nonprofits, governments, and the community from Madison, St. Clair, St. Louis City, St. Louis County, St. Charles, Lincoln, and Warren counties.
