About Us

The Key Alliance is the website of the Metropolitan Homelessness Commission. The Commission was established to administer the city's 10-Year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness as part of a national effort. Government officials, community leaders, and service agencies examined the many complexities of homelessness in Nashville. The plan's vision is to eliminate chronic homelessness in Nashville by ensuring access to safe, affordable, and permanent housing with a comprehensive array of supportive services.

The 10-year strategic plan provides goals related to eliminating homelessness, including the following:

  • Provide permanent supportive housing and transitional housing to eliminate homelessness
  • Integrate programs and services to impact homelessness
  • Establish emergency funds and systems to prevent homelessness
  • Initiate effective outreach processes
