| The Tucson Planning Council for the Homeless (TPCH) is a coalition of organizations and individuals committed to reducing homelessness and addressing issues related to homelessness in our community. Founded in the mid 80’s, the council consists primarily of agencies that provide services to homeless people, faith-based organizations, concerned government entities and other interested individuals and groups.
The best known TPCH program is Operation Deep Freeze, which activates additional shelters for homeless people when cold winter temperatures threaten health and safety. The Winter Shelter Program is support by funds from the State of Arizona, FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency),the City of Tucson, and Pima County.
Information & Referral Services provides staff administration, coordination and fiscal sponsorship for TPCH and serves as its main contact point.
