ECHO West Texas (Ending Community Homelessness Organization) is formerly known as Lubbock's Homeless Haven, Established in June 2021. The new name is the result of a redevelopment in early 2023, through a collaboration of successful business owners, and providers who served the local homeless community. Both groups have a passion for seeing positive long-term change in our community facing and experiencing homelessness but knew we needed a variety of people to gain momentum and create change.

​

We quickly learned that we must work like a community, to effectively and efficiently serve our community. 

​

Other thriving areas have attributed their success to the commitment of cross-sector community collaboration. Our team of Board of Directors is a group of leaders who represent various sectors serving the most vulnerable in our community, with the influence to create the foundation of a Lubbock-wide collaborative effort.
