The Office of Homeless Care and Coordination (OHCC) works to build a robust, integrated, and coordinated system for housing and homelessness services and acts as the County’s point of contact on homelessness strategic planning and program development. OHCC works to improve health and housing outcomes among people experiencing homelessness, working within HCSA and with other County agencies and departments, cities, community-based organizations, and other partners. OHCC oversees Coordinated Entry and Housing Services for the County’s homelessness response system. Health Care for the Homeless (HCH), which sits in OHCC, is a federally-designated health center program offering medical, mental health, dental, optometry, pharmacy, and case management services that are directly provided by staff, and through contracted provider organizations including Alameda Health System and other Federally Qualified Health Centers.
