Common Ground is a pioneer in the development of supportive housing and other research-based practices that end homelessness.

Common Ground’s strategy has three components:

* Affordable Housing. We build and operate a range of housing options for homeless and low-income individuals – housing that is attractive, affordable, well managed, and linked to the services and support people need to rebuild their lives.
* Outreach. We identify and house the most vulnerable: those who have been homeless the longest, have the most disabling conditions, and are least likely to access housing resources. These individuals typically spend years cycling between emergency shelters, hospitals, and jails.
* Prevention. We strengthen communities and prevent homelessness by addressing the multiple factors that cause individuals and families to become homeless.

Common Ground's Green Building Campaign
* In 2007, CG launched a $4.3 million dollar campaign to 'build green'
* Where are we building green? The Lee (Manhattan), The Hollander (Hartford, CT), Brook Avenue (The Bronx), The Domenech (Brownsville, Brooklyn), Cederwoods (Willimantic, CT) and Hegeman Avenue (Brownsville, Brooklyn)
* All donations will be matched by a challange grant from the Kresge Foundation
