Preventing homelessness on the Lower Cape since 1991
The Homeless Prevention Council works
everyday to keep people in their homes and their communities. We are aware of the unique problems and assets of each community we
serve and, through one-on-one case management, use every resource available to create individual solutions
to the many problems encountered.
We collaborate with other advocacy groups, town agencies and churches to help people access food, clothing, furniture, transportation, housing and other needs. We serve the residents of the eight towns of Lower / Outer Cape Cod on a non-sectarian, non-discriminatory basis.
Whether you need our services or want to aid in the fight against homelessness, the Homeless Prevention Council is here to help.

Thanks to all who made Adopt-a-Family 2011 a success!
More than 415 people and organizations made the wishes of our youngest clients come true this holiday season with their donations to our Adopt-a-Family program. We provided 284 Lower Cape kids with toys, bikes (59 of them!), clothes and other presents on their wish lists of things that they never would have received if not for the generosity of their neighbors. Their families are working with HPC case managers to secure safe and stable housing.
Special thanks to the 46 volunteers who helped program coordinator Maureen Linehan organize the program and make the distribution of the gifts an absolute joy. To learn more about Adopt a Family, contact Maureen at maureen@hpccapecod.org
