About us.
Our team is dedicated to ending homelessness
We are a New Mexico non-profit gathering a coalition of private citizens, for profit businesses, nonprofits, and other community members that want to help the City of Albuquerque end homelessness.
Our mission at The Abq Plan is to address homelessness in the City of Albuquerque, one person at a time. As of September 2022, the homeless population in Albuquerque, NM, exceeded 1300 individuals, with only 174 in “transitional housing,” as reported by the Albuquerque Journal. Our goal is to assist those in need of rental support, preventing them from becoming homeless. We aim to support individuals in their current struggles to maintain housing stability, providing timely assistance when they need it most. We are dedicated to helping those ready to receive support, connecting them with resources and programs to ensure they transition from where they are to a better life.
Our founder and Executive Director, Chas. William Holman, is a long time resident of Albuquerque, an older retiree who remembers a time when Albuquerque didn’t have homeless people wandering the streets without access to shelter. He is dedicated to bringing back that state of affairs. He is actively working to grow a community of like-minded people to solve this problem together.
