900 Homeless Deaths Reported Across City Last Year

The tragic reality of homelessness is deeply concerning, and the recent report by Fox 11 highlighting the 900 homeless deaths in LA underscores the urgency of addressing this crisis. As an organization, our hearts go out to those who have lost their lives while experiencing homelessness, and we are committed to taking action to prevent further tragedies.

One of the critical ways we are addressing homelessness is by focusing on eviction prevention efforts. We recognize that eviction can often be a precursor to homelessness, and by providing support and resources to individuals and families facing eviction, we aim to prevent them from falling into homelessness in the first place.


Our efforts in eviction prevention include providing financial assistance, legal support, and access to social services to help individuals and families stay housed. We work closely with community partners, government agencies, and advocacy groups to advocate for policies and initiatives that protect tenants' rights and address the root causes of homelessness.


Additionally, we are dedicated to raising awareness about the systemic issues that contribute to homelessness and advocating for long-term solutions that provide stable housing, support services, and economic opportunities for all members of our community.

While the challenges of homelessness are complex and multifaceted, we remain committed to our mission of preventing homelessness, supporting those in need, and working towards a future where everyone has a safe and stable place to call home.
