Supporting this work

A free public directory of housing and community resources for Kentucky and Indiana, built so that, where we have them, listings show where the information came from and the date it was last checked. No account is required to use it, nothing about a person’s search is tied to them, and there is no advertising or paid placement anywhere in it.

No One Left Outside’s public directory and guides are free to use, with no account and no paywall, and are designed to stay that way. Organizations pay for services; the people looking for help do not.

No One Left Outside LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company, is the seller and receives support payments. Payments to it are business income, not tax-deductible charitable contributions.

No One Left Outside LLC operates this directory. That is an intentional choice: a business that can contract directly with the organizations it serves.

In rough order of what would most improve the service for the people using it:

• VerificationThe recurring work of re-checking records against their sources and contacting providers directly. This is the single largest ongoing cost and the one that decides whether the site is worth using.
• Filling the fields that read UNKNOWNCost, what to bring, and physical accessibility are not recorded for most programs. They are the details that decide whether a trip across town was worth making.
• Geographic expansionDeeper coverage across Kentucky and Indiana statewide, and additional states later, done by checking local sources rather than importing an unreviewed statewide list into a polished interface. Coverage may be incomplete while records are under review.
• Accessibility and translationIndependent accessibility testing against a published standard, and Spanish — the site is English-only today.
• Forms, data maintenance, and interoperabilityKeeping official routes current as agencies change them, and the schema work described on Data & interoperability.
• InfrastructureHosting, backups, and the operational discipline that keeps a service people rely on from disappearing.

Health systems, agencies, foundations, and community organizations can write to dustin@nooneleftoutside.org. It reaches Dustin Collins directly, to scope a contract, fund a defined piece of work, or name No One Left Outside as a contracted provider of deliverables under a grant they hold.

Organizations whose interest is a service, a verification project, or a pilot rather than support should start at For organizations.

The best way to support No One Left Outside is to fund defined work: a verification project, a county’s data, or navigation materials for your program. See For organizations.

Corrections are worth more than they sound. If you know a program has closed, moved, changed its hours, or turned someone away for a reason the listing does not mention, Report a change — every submission stays a proposal until a person reviews it.
