What is the Homeless Action Committee?
HAC seeks to end homelessness in Albany by focusing on its root causes, and providing services to people who are homeless. HAC operates an Outreach Van program which provides basic aid- food, clothes, blankets, human compassion, and transportation for persons who live on the streets. We also operate permanent housing which provides a home to homeless people with alcoholism who had been living on the streets for years and who have been unable to stay sober.
SLEEP-A-THON REGISTRATION, PROCEDURES, & INFO
1. Participants in the Sleep-a-thon agree to spend at least 1 hour in the park. We hope you will sign up for additional hours or the whole night.
2. The Sleep-a-thon will be held from 7:00 pm to sunrise. It will be held in Townsend Park (corner of Henry Johnson Blvd. & Central Ave., Albany)
