Working to End Homelessness in Orange County
| Over the last few years, the County has made considerable progress in creating the system of care for the homeless. However, homelessness continues to be a communitywide issue, and we are committed to working collaboratively with our cities to find a solution to this problem.
Since the County became involved in the federal court case pertaining to homelessness, we have made progress in enhancing the system of care. In recent weeks, the County has made significant strides including:
The County continues to work with cities to address the immediate need to enhance shelter capacity and the County will reach a milestone with the completion of the first year round emergency shelter, Bridges at Kramer. As the County continues to address the immediate need for additional bed capacity, we are focused on the long term goal of creating 2,700 permanent supportive housing (PSH) units. The County is moving forward with nearly 500 PSH units in the pipeline, and we will continue to work with our cities toward the 2,700 unit goal. For information on the Orange County Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Plan Update, please see the press release. (06/01/18) |
