Success Story: MCCD has provided shelter and services to homeless people since 1985. MCCD also organized the Madison County Continuum of Care for Homeless. In 2000 MCCD and the Continuum of Care successfully applied to HUD for funding of 20 units of transitional housing, 12 units of perminent supportive housing for homeless mentally ill and funding to hire a youth counselor to work with homeless youth. The increased homeless services will go a long way towards providing a stable living invironment and support services for homeless people.
