Need Cont.
• The current “emergency shelter” model is ineffective in treating the whole person
• 69 percent of HB’s homeless responded they would seek services if they knew how or where
• Onsite services at a traditional emergency shelter do not adequately offer the necessary services to provide housing navigation services, physical health care services, or behavioral health services
• Efficient full-service delivery offered “on-site” and in a safe and secure environment results in improved outcomes for the individual and the system of care
• A need to make the client the center of the delivery model and meet them where they are – making services accessible
Vision
• Create a distinct, integrated facility to support
individuals from street to home
• By providing space that allows the engagement of
unhoused individuals and create a path from
homelessness to housing
• While addressing the underlying barriers that have
prevented housing in the past
• Physical development in alignment with Beach &
Edingers Corridor Specific Plan (BECSP)
Vision Cont.
• Provide a continuum of services at one location to
include a combination of:
• Shelter Operations
• Sobering Center
• Behavioral and Physical Healthcare
• Housing Navigation
• Life Skills
• Employment Services
