As the regional homeless crisis worsens, some homeless advocates question whether every city is doing its fair share to provide help. In response, the city of Chula Vista, CA created a department tasked with providing staff and resources to address the needs of the nearly 800 people experiencing homelessness in the city.

Chula Vista will be the first in the county to open 66 pallet shelters & offer wraparound services. I’m incredibly proud of the work our city & our Homeless Outreach Team is doing to combat the homelessness crisis.
