Episode 72 - Building Stability: A Conversation About Kansas’ Continuum of Care

This week on Housing for Good, Chris and Karolyn welcome Kayla Knier, Director of Regional Coordination at the Kansas Statewide Homeless Coalition. Kayla shares how regional collaboration, funding structures, and cross-community partnerships work together to strengthen Kansas’ homelessness response system.

We explore how the Kansas Balance of State Continuum of Care brings communities together, coordinates resources across 101 counties, and strengthens the support available to individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

Kayla also discusses how data, community relationships, and shared goals shape long-term solutions that make homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurring.

A quick note — our guest joined us remotely for this conversation.
