The Angeleno Project

In Los Angeles, Board and Care facilities play a critical role in addressing homelessness and supporting mental health. These homes provide more than shelter; they offer stability, care, and a path toward healing for some of our most vulnerable neighbors. Through our #HomeIsHope campaign, we’re shining a light on the importance of these facilities and the role they play in creating a compassionate and connected city. Learn more about how we’re working to expand and strengthen Board and Care in L.A. at TheAngelenoProject.org .??

Measure A passed—so, what happens next??

Our goal is to ensure everyone has the stability of a home.? The work doesn’t stop here. Learn more about what’s ahead at TheAngelenoProject.org, and join us in creating a stronger L.A. ????

Two weeks ago, the agency’s fiscal future was uncertain. However, with voter approval of Measure A, nearly $400 million is projected to be raised annually for LACAHSA. The L.A. County Affordable Housing Solutions Agency was established to make housing more affordable, help people stay in their homes, and expand housing options for those experiencing homelessness. As a regional organization serving all of L.A. County, LACAHSA is designed to be accountable, with leaders from across the county and a single CEO who can cut through red tape to drive meaningful progress like never before.

Following the national election results, we stand with our partners, committed to tackling housing and homelessness in LA County.

Regardless of the election outcomes, we are committed to standing by our neighbors, advocating for change, and building a city where everyone has a place to call home.

Please read this powerful Op-Ed, co-authored by our Co-Chair, Miguel A. Santana. "Measure A would help provide the dedicated resources for housing programs and critical services that our communities need to weather these challenges without disrupting their education to break the cycle of instability. Without stable housing, students struggle to succeed academically and emotionally, leading to long-term consequences for our communities. By shifting some of the county’s homelessness funding toward preventive and family-focused solutions, we can make a lasting difference in the lives of children and help break the cycle of poverty and homelessness".
