20+ Years of Leadership in Ending Homelessness Systems

Turning Data Into Dignity

Every chart and count represents a person. Our work helps communities move from measuring homelessness to ending it—building systems that are effective, equitable, and humane.

Proven System Results in Montgomery County

In partnership with Montgomery County and the Interagency Commission on Homelessness, Amanda led system transformation efforts that resulted in measurable, sustained progress:

90%

Reduction in chronic homelessness

50%

Decrease in family homelessness over ten years

41%

Overall decline in homelessness since 2013

227

Veterans permanently housed since 2015

$91.6M

Invested in rent relief preventing displacement for thousands of households

These shifts were not program tweaks—they were the outcomes of a system rebuilt around fidelity to Housing First, aligned governance, and real-time accountability.

Innovation in Action

Amanda's strategy shows how intentional design, equity, and data can unlock transformative results.

MoCo BOOST Guaranteed Income Pilot

$800/month for 300 households, launched using AJHC's insights into subsidy gaps.

Exit Bonus Payments

Flexible, one-time financial boosts helping more than 100 households transition from shelter to stability with a 17% return rate—outperforming national averages.

Data-Driven Prevention Model

Building Systems that Last

Ending homelessness requires more than crisis response—it takes system alignment, long-term vision, and a commitment to equity and accountability.

Through Amanda J. Harris Consulting LLC, these lessons now guide communities across the country as they redesign coordinated entry systems, modernize data use, and align funding for lasting impact.
