Ending chronic homelessness
People experiencing chronic homelessness are among the most vulnerable and disadvantaged in our society, often requiring a disproportionate and costly amount of public health and safety services. A wide body of research shows that permanent supportive housing is the best, most cost-effective solution. In partnership with the public, philanthropic, nonprofit, and private sector stakeholders at work on this urgent issue, we aim to eliminate chronic homelessness in Los Angeles County.
