A-SPAN is dedicated to helping every homeless individual leave the streets and live a life of dignity.

On December 20, 2007 dozens of Arlingtonians remembered neighbors who died this year while homeless during a candlelight vigil near the     A-SPAN Emergency Shelter. 

Each year since 1990, on or near the first day of winter and the longest night of the year, National Coalition for the Homeless (NCH) has sponsored National Homeless Persons' Memorial Day to bring attention to the tragedy of homelessness and to remember our homeless friends who have paid the ultimate price for our nation's failure to end homelessness.
