Thanks to your support, we served over 10,000 clients in 2023, assisting more than 800 households in securing safe, affordable housing!

Sunrise has significantly expanded its ability to meet the growing needs of our community. Our impressive growth is attributed to innovative programs and a commitment to data-driven services, producing the amazing statistics we are excited to share here in our 2023 Year in Review.

We're excited about expanding and refining our work in 2024 as we empower people experiencing homelessness.

This past fall, we initiated our inaugural 3-year Strategic Plan. This blueprint outlines our primary objectives for the upcoming months, and the prospect of witnessing our continuous growth is genuinely exciting.

As we embark on this new journey in 2024, I am grateful for the unwavering support of our community, the dedication of our team, and the resilience of those we serve.

Together, we can continue to make a meaningful impact on the lives of our unhoused friends.

Last year we connected over 6,500 people experiencing homelessness to innovative, low-barrier solutions and housing resources across Austin.

Austin, Texas – Sunrise Homeless Navigation Center, the highest-volume provider of homeless services in Travis County, is officially launching Austin’s first homelessness hotline call center which allows people experiencing homelessness to connect to integral services and coordinated housing assessments directly by phone, which are often difficult to find offered in person.

"We have grown from a helpful day center into the highest volume provider of homeless services in Austin-Travis County where the Sunrise Hub team is just one of 7 distinct teams following our now-famous integrated model of care that brings whole-person care to the whole person trauma of homelessness." Mark Hilbelink, Director
