PREVENTING AND ENDING HOMELESSNESS IN WNC
Introducing Homeward Bound of WNC’s new look!
Our journey has shown us just how resilient we are. In our almost 40-year history, we have grown from a small grassroots organization to an established nonprofit leader in ending homelessness. We want our branding (look and feel) to reflect that expertise and professionalism, while also ushering us into contemporary times and reflecting our current voice.
Our Mission: To prevent and end homelessness in our community through permanent housing and support.
Homeward Bound of WNC is a registered 501 (c) (3) nonprofit in Asheville, North Carolina. Our work is based on substantial evidence that people experiencing homelessness can achieve stability and thrive through flexibility, individualized support, and client autonomy.
THE RESULT: higher housing retention rates, reduced reliance on costly crisis services and institutions, and improved health and social outcomes for our neighbors across Buncombe County.

Get Involved
Ending homelessness in our region is a community effort. Without supporters like you, we could not provide services for as many as a thousand or more people annually at AHOPE or collect, sort, and distribute furniture and household items at our Welcome Home Donation Center for those transitioning out of homelessness.
