Acadiana Regional Coalition on Homelessness & Housing

Acadiana Regional Coalition on Homelessness & Housing (ARCH) is a regional coalition focused on housing stability and ending homelessness in Acadiana. Its mission is to help ensure access to safe, affordable, and decent housing while working toward homelessness being rare, brief, and non-recurring. Learn more about ARCH’s work on its official website.

ARCH collaborates with housing and community development organizations, neighborhood leaders, local governments, private-sector developers, and other stakeholders. Through the Acadiana Housing Alliance, co-led by ARCH, the coalition helps coordinate regional housing efforts with an initial focus on housing needs, affordability, and availability in Lafayette’s core neighborhoods.

People seeking housing or emergency assistance can review ARCH’s official help resources. Additional information about homeless assistance in Louisiana and federal assistance programs may also help residents identify relevant support.
