Nomi Health hosted an event this month to provide aid to the unhoused population in “The Zone” in downtown Phoenix, the city’s largest homeless encampment that spans from South 12th Avenue to West Madison Street.

Nomi Health provided 240 bags of essential items including non-perishable food, water, socks, sunscreen and hygiene supplies to people experiencing homelessness.

Nomi provides services in three substance use disorder treatment and recovery clinics in the Valley.

“As a newer presence in the community, we feel it’s important that our mission for health equity transcend our clinics’ walls,” Allyson Morgan, director of the Arizona Market for Nomi Health, shared in a press release.

The company is investing in the health and wellbeing of local underserved communities, including those who are unhoused.

The homeless population in Maricopa County surged by 72% between 2017 and 2023, totaling nearly 10,000 people.
