Addressing family homelessness
Unhoused
In October 2021, the County launched an initiative in partnership with the City of San Jose, Housing Authority, Destination: Home, and other community partners to decrease instances of family homelessness within the County. Using new rental support resources and homelessness prevention strategies, as well as investing in the development of affordable family rental units, 478 families with children (including 668 adults and 937 children) had found permanent housing by within the first year.
