Housing Community Supports

OHCC Housing Services partners with community-based homeless and housing service providers to implement Housing Community Supports. Funded through California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM), Housing Community Supports provides services to over 1,800 of Alameda County’s most vulnerable homeless and formerly homeless households, and aims to serve over 3,500 households by 2023. Services include:
- Housing Transition Navigation services, to assist consumers with obtaining housing;
- Housing Deposits, to assist with one-time services and modifications necessary to enable a person to establish a basic household; and
- Housing Tenancy and Sustaining Services, to assist to maintain safe and stable tenancy once housing is secured.
