Michael Shore is an advocate and practitioner of ending homelessness for individuals and families through permanent housing solutions. As CEO of HOM, Inc., Mike has over 25 years of experience in operating rental assistance programs, including permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, housing choice vouchers, and HUD-VASH programs.
