The Advisory Board serves as the governing body for the Oʻahu Continuum of Care (CoC), providing leadership and oversight of its policies, operations, and strategic direction. The board is responsible for developing broad policies, ensuring the CoC has adequate resources, and appointing and evaluating the Lead Agency. It reviews funding decisions, oversees HUD CoC Program applications, and ensures compliance with federal regulations related to housing and homeless services. The board also acts on committee recommendations and establishes written standards for eligibility, prioritization, and participant contributions across CoC housing programs. In collaboration with partners, it ensures consistent and fair practices for all CoC-funded projects. Through these responsibilities, the Advisory Board helps guide and strengthen the CoC’s overall impact in addressing homelessness on Oʻahu.

The October Advisory Meeting is being hosted by Partners in Care on the 5th floor of the Aloha United Way building.
