# GOV   Homeless Services GAP Analysis Comm 11 12 2026

The Nashua Homeless Services Gap Analysis Committee met on November 12, 2026, to review preliminary homelessness-system data and organize its analysis. Early findings from the Continuum of Care scorecard and ICF report indicated that more people enter homelessness each year than exit to housing, although the net system flow improved from −408 to −245; chronic homelessness was identified as a major concern, and the local system was described as relying heavily on transitional housing while having limited rapid-rehousing capacity. Committee members also discussed collecting city budget information and coordinating assignments; an amendment to the assignments was approved without opposition.

The committee planned at least two listening sessions with people with lived experience, including at the resource center and warming station, and discussed outreach, accessible scheduling, and reviewing draft questions with community members. Members made edits to a survey for housing and homelessness service providers, including questions on services, capacity, waiting lists, staffing, barriers, and funding sources; the chair and public health staff will finalize it for distribution. The committee also discussed extending future meeting blocks from 1–3 p.m. as needed and establishing focused public comment, but the transcript does not show a vote on that proposal. No contracts, awards, purchasing decisions, or other procurement activity were identified.
