Homelessness

From the Houston Housing Authority's Facebook post:

From FOX 5 San Diego:

Construction crews are developing a multi-story building aimed to house people experiencing homelessness and they are using shipping containers to get it done.

The new development is underway in the El Cerrito neighborhood of San Diego and local leaders believe it could be the building blocks to a fast-paced housing solution.

From the San Diego Housing Commission's press release:

Continuing collaborative efforts to create additional permanent affordable homes with supportive services for people experiencing homelessness, the San Diego Housing Commission (SDHC) has applied for up to $23 million from the state Homekey program for two properties in collaboration with the City of San Diego and County of San Diego.

From Home Forward's press release:

HUD has published Notice PIH 2023-13, which supersedes PIH Notice 2013-15, and provides PHAs with strategies to use HCVs while working with CoCs to prevent homelessness.  

Specifically, this notice:  

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has declared a state of emergency on homelessness in the city. Host Jeffery K. Patterson sits down with the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles (HACLA) President and CEO Doug Guthrie and CLPHA Executive Director Sunia Zaterman to discuss why homelessness has become a humanitarian crisis in the country and how HACLA's efforts are combatting the problem.

From the San Diego Union Tribune:

The city of San Diego’s first homeless shelter focused on youths who identify as LGBTQ could open sometime this year in one or two interim locations before a permanent site is located.

The San Diego Housing Commission on Thursday selected the LGBT Community Center to run the shelter. The center was recommended by commission staff over Father Joe’s Villages, the Salvation Army and Equitable Social Solutions LLC , which also had applied to run the shelter.
