CoC Committee of the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Partnership

The Continuum of Care (CoC) Committee was established in June 2021 to replace the Governing Board of the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Partnership. Originally formed in 2008, the Governing Board provided executive level collaborative leadership to guide the direction of high-level policy development, community visibility, overall accountability, and resource development necessary for the successful implementation of the 10 Year Plan to end homelessness.

As a Committee of the Affordable Housing Advisory Council (AHAC), the purpose of the CoC Committee is to provide community leadership and policy guidance, consistent with the One Fairfax policy, to ensure the successful end to homelessness in the Fairfax-Falls Church community. The Committee serves in compliance with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Rule 24 CFR 578, Subpart B, entitled "Establishing and Operating a Continuum of Care."
