Mission
The Organization's mission is to ensure that individuals and families experiencing homelessness or the risk of homelessness are able to access housing services and resources on their path to economic stability. The Organization is the lead agency for the Sacramento Homeless Continuum of Care and administers and oversees grants for homeless related programs in Sacramento County which are received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and are passed through to various non-profit organizations as sub-grants. The Continuum of Care Program is designed by HUD to promote community-wide commitment to the goal of ending homelessness. Since becoming the lead agency in the Continuum of Care in 2011, the annual level of grant funding provided to the Sacramento community by HUD has increased by five million dollars. This funding supports twenty-two permanent supportive housing programs and retains housing and supportive services for people who were previously homeless.
