Between 2018 and 2019, TPCH partnered with the Corporation for Supportive Housing to conduct a community gaps analysis related to supportive housing. This analysis found that approximately 2,000 additional supportive housing beds are needed to meet the projected ten-year need in Pima County.

Operation Deep Freeze (ODF) is Tucson's winter severe-weather emergency shelter for people experiencing homelessness. ODF goes into effect when weather predictions are for overnight temperatures of 40°F or lower with rain, 35°F or lower without rain, or when wind chill factors indicate a health hazard from exposure. You do not need an ID or a TB card to participate in ODF.
