THAT WE ARE HOLDING AN OVERSIGHT
HEARING ON THIS TOPIC BESIDES
THAT IT IS OF- WHARTON'S TO ARE.

ALSO THAT WE HAVE MADE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS WHEN I

PAULA JUDGE FOR THAT- CARE AND
DECORUM BUT- I LOOK FORWARD TO-
THE INFORMATION THAT- WE'RE
RECEIVING EVERY SEE- PREVIEWED
SOME OF IT BEFORE AND- I THINK
WE HAVE SOME GOOD QUESTIONS FOR
GOOD DISCUSSION. PRESHEAF THAT
CENTER IN YOUR- ALRIGHT SO WE'RE
GOING TO BEGIN THIS HEARING WITH
AN OVERVIEW FROM OUR LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE. TO GIVE US- SO
WE ALL START ON THE SAME PAGE OF
THE TYPE OF INVESTMENTS THAT
HAVE BEEN MADE. AND IN WHAT
AREAS SO LET US HEAR NOW FROM
THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE
. GOOD MORNING MADAM CHAIR AND
SENATORS UNDER THIS MODEL THAT'S
WHAT THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE- I WILL BE SPEAKING THIS
MORNING FROM A HAND DOWN WOULD
YOU GIVE ME A MOMENT WHILE I
SHARE MY SCREEN. YOU SHOULD HAVE
A COPY BEFORE YOU AND IT'S ALSO
AVAILABLE. ON THE WEBSITE.
NOTICEABLE AS YOU MENTIONED I'VE
BEEN ASKED TO PROVIDE AN
OVERVIEW OF THE LANDSCAPE OF
HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS IN THE
STATE I THINK PERCENT DATA ON
THE SCOPE OF THE CHALLENGES. THE
STATE FACES AND SUMMARIZE
REASONS ACTIONS TO ADDRESS
HOUSING AFFORDABILITY AND
HOMELESSNESS THAT MAKES FOR
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CURRENT
IMPLEMENTATION AS YOU MENTIONED.
OF THESE RIGHT RECENT
INVESTMENTS WE ARE WORKING TO
COMPILE SUCH INFORMATION AND
HOPE TO PROVIDE THOSE DETAILS ON
OUR UPCOMING HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS BUDGET. ANALYSIS-
YOU SORT OF MAKE ADDITIONAL.
THAT YOU MAY NOT BE TO THE HELP
AT THE END. WILL BE BETTER. TO
PROVIDE UPDATES AND THEY WILL BE
REPRESENTED IN THE SUBSEQUENT
PASSCODE FOR YOU TODAY. SO JUMP
IN AND- NO THAT HOUSING
AFFORDABILITY IS A SERIOUS AND
WIDESPREAD CHALLENGE IN THE
STATE. OF THE BEEN HERE ON PAGE
ONE DETECTS CALIFORNIA. HAS
SPENT A LARGER SHARE OF THEIR
INCOME ON HOUSING THAT
HOUSEHOLDS IN THE REST OF THE
NATION EVERY IN BLOG QUARTILE.
AND HOUSEHOLD THE LOWEST INCOME
SINCE THE HIGHEST COST
PRESSURES. IN PARTICULAR. THERE
ARE OVER ONE POINT FIVE MILLION
IN MIDDLE INCOME RENTERS AT A
SIGNIFICANT COST PRESSURES.
TWENTY MORE THAN HALF OF THEIR
INCOME ON HOUSING. ADDITIONALLY
AN AVERAGE OF AN AVERAGE HOME IN
CALIFORNIA BECAUSE TWO TIMES THE
NATIONAL AVERAGE AND
CALIFORNIANS ON AVERAGE. A MONTH
IN RENT IS ABOUT 50% HIGHER THAN
THE REST OF THE COUNTRY. WELL
MANY FACTORS- HAVE A ROLE IN
TRAINING CALIFORNIA'S HIGH
HOUSING COST THE MOST IMPORTANT.
THING AGAIN SHORTAGE OF HOUSING.
THE FIGURE ON PAGE TWO THAT'S
HOW THE SHORTAGE HAS INCREASED
CALIFORNIA'S HEALTH CRISIS MUCH
FASTER THAN HOME PRICES
NATIONALLY. IN PARTICULAR SINCE
THE NINETEEN EIGHTIES. WELL WE
GENERALLY HAVE SAID THAT THE
STATE WOULD NEED ABOUT TWICE AS
MUCH HOUSING BUILT ANNUALLY TO
KEEP UP WITH CALIFORNIA'S-
COSCO- TO KEEP IT IN LINE WITH
ESCALATING COSTS ACROSS THE
NATION SO AGAIN GENERALLY TO.
ADJUST FOR THIS WE SAID
CALIFORNIANS HAVE BEEN BUILT
ABOUT TWICE AS MUCH HOUSING. SO
WELL. HOMELESS IN THE COMPLEX
PROBLEM WITH MANY CAUSES THE
HIGH COST OF HOUSING IS A
SIGNIFICANT FACTOR IN THE
STATE'S HOMELESSNESS CRISIS. THE
NEXT FEW PAGES OF THE HAND OUT
INTO PROVIDE INSIGHT INTO WHO IS
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS IN
CALIFORNIA. 1-007-100-0900
PEOPLE EXPERIENCED HOMELESSNESS
IN CALIFORNIA ACCORDING TO THE
TWENTY TWENTY TWO POINT IN TIME
COUNT REQUIRED BY THE US
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN
DEVELOPMENT. THAT MEANS
CALIFORNIA HAS MORE PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS THAN
ANY OTHER STATE IN THE NATION.
TWENTY EIGHT PERCENT. OF THE
NATIONAL TOTAL DIFFERENT
CALIFORNIA HAVING 12% OF THE
NATIONAL POPULATION. FURTHERMORE
CALIFORNIA ALSO HAS THE HIGHEST
PERCENT OF UNSHELTERED
HOMELESSNESS IN THE NATION.
SIXTY SEVEN PERCENT. THE BIGGER
ALSO HIGHLIGHTS A FEW OTHER
CHARACTERISTICS OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AND
HOW THOSE HAVE CHANGED SINCE
TWELVE JANUARY TWENTY TWENTY.
THE LAST YEAR WE HAVE COMPLETE
DATA. ALLOWING FOR A COMPARISON
DUE TO TALK DOWN THE COLLECTION
CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED WITH THE
COMPANY ADAMEK. I WON'T GO INTO
DETAILS BUT AS YOU CAN SEE SOME
OF THE LARGEST INCREASE FROM
TWENTY TWENTY IS IN PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING CHRONIC
HOMELESSNESS WELL THE LARGEST
DECREASE. IS WHAT THE
UNACCOMPANIED. YOUTH
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. YOUR
ON PAGE FOUR SHOWS THE
DISTRIBUTION OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS IN THE
STATE. IN ALL THE COMMUNITIES
IDENTIFIED IN THE FIGURE MAKE UP
NEARLY 75% OF ALL PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS IN
CALIFORNIA. THE REMAINING 25%
ARE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS
AND OTHER SORT OF REMAINING
REGIONS OF THE STATE. I THINK
IT'S YOUNG AGE FIVE PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AND
CALIFORNIA ARE OVERWHELMING
EMAIL. HOWEVER S. H. SIX DEPICTS
THE SHARE OF SHELTERED AND
UNSHELTERED HOMELESSNESS X.
VERY- FACED BY GENDER. DESPITE
UNSHELTERED HOMELESSNESS IN HÌNH
CALIFORNIA WE SEE SOME GENDERS
DISPROPORTIONATELY EXPERIENCING
UNSHELTERED HOMELESSNESS. IN
PARTICULAR THE VAST MAJORITY OF
TRANSGENDER AND GENDER
NONCONFORMING AND QUESTIONING
PEOPLE EXPERIENCE UNSHELTERED
HOMELESSNESS WELL WOMEN
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS ARE
THE MOST LIKELY TO BE SHELTERED
. NOW TURNING TO PAGE SEVEN AND
EIGHT WHICH ADDRESS RACE AND
ETHNICITY. OPPOSITION
DISPROPORTIONATELY EXPERIENCE
HOMELESSNESS FOR EXAMPLE WHILE
BLACK AND AFRICAN AMERICAN
INDIVIDUALS MAKE UP ABOUT 7% OF
THE STATE'S TOTAL POPULATION
THEY COMPRISE 30% OF THE PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. THIS
FINAL FIGURE ON HOMELESSNESS
DEPICTS HOW THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING SHELTERED AND
UNSHELTERED HOMELESSNESS IN THE
STATE HAS CHANGED SINCE TWENTY
TEN. WE SEE BOTH THE OVERALL
INCREASE IN HOMELESSNESS IN
RECENT YEARS. UNSHELTERED
HOMELESSNESS HAS GROWN FASTER
THAN SHELTERED HOMELESSNESS. THE
DATA. I JUST PRESENTED IS BASED
ON THE ANNUAL POINT IN TIME
COUNT REQUIRED BY. THE US
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN
DEVELOPMENT WELL THIS IS
INFORMATIVE IT ALSO IS IMPORTANT
TO RECOGNIZE ITS LIMITATIONS
EFFORTS SHOULD PRODUCE AN
ACCURATE AND COMPLETE COUNT ARE
HINDERED BY VARIOUS FACTORS.
INCLUDING FOR ONE IT'S JUST
DIFFICULT TO CONDUCT APPOINTED
TIMES ARE SORT OF CAPACITY
CONSTRAINTS AND OTHER CHALLENGES
THAT THE CEO. SEES A CHART
MINISTRY COUNTS. ALSO JUST
PROVIDE THE FOR. OF NO ALL
PEOPLE THAT FRANK IN AND OUT OF
A SENSE OF HOMELESSNESS DRUG THE
YEAR THAT MY NOT BE COUNT. AS A
MAN PREVIOUSLY THE NINETEEN HAS
FURTHER COMPLICATED DATA
AVAILABILITY. SHE. TWENTY TIME
COUNT UNDER RECORDS THE NUMBER
OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS. THE STATE'S NEW
HOMES DATA INTEGRATION SYSTEM
HEIF ARE SOME MORE INFORMATION
THAT CAN PARTICULARLY OVER TIME
COMPLEMENT IT COMES OUT OF. THE
SYSTEM ALLOWS THE STATE TO
ACCESS AND COMPILE STANDARDIZED
DATA COLLECTED BY THE LOCAL
CONTINUES OF CARE WHICH
ADMINISTER AND COORDINATE
HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS ABOUT THE
PEOPLE THEY SERVE. THEIR BY
CAPTURING MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
THE DELIVERY OF HOMELESSNESS
SERVICES IN THE STATE AND A
BROADER POPULATION OF. PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOUSING INSTABILITY
. INTERAGENCY COME ON HOW NOW AS
CALLIE EACH WHICH ARE A SYSTEM
THAT MEETS UPDATING AND TIME SHE
LOOKS MORE OUTCOMES PEOPLE.
SERVICES TO HELP THE STATE AND
LOCAL. BETTER THEIR. CHRISTOPHER
NINETEEN REDUCE INTENDING
HOMELESSNESS. I'M AGES ELEVEN
AND THE HANDOUT WE SAW IN THE
AND KERN AVAILABLE THROUGH EACH.
EACH YES EXCUSE ME. FOR EXAMPLE
THE DATA DEMONSTRATES THAT
PEOPLE ACCESS HOMELESSNESS
SERVICES LOCALLY VERY FEW PEOPLE
ACCESS HOMELESSNESS SERVICES IN
MORE THAN ONE CALIFORNIA CSC. OF
THE PEOPLE THAT YOU ACCESS
MULTIPLE JURISDICTIONS OR
SERVICES IN MULTIPLE
JURISDICTIONS MOST DID SO IN A
G. SEEING ADJACENT NEIGHBORING
CST SUGGESTING THAT THOSE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS FOR
CALIFORNIA DO NOT TEND TO
MIGRATE. TO OTHER REGIONS. ON
PAGE THIRTEEN WE OUTLINED HOW
FEDERAL STATE AND LOCAL ENTITIES
WORK. TOGETHER TO FUNDING
ADMINISTER VARIETY OF PROGRAMS
FEET AIMED AT HELPING PEOPLE
AFFORD HOUSING AND ASSISTING
THOSE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS OR ARE AT RISK OF
BECOMING HOMELESS. ZEROING IN ON
THE STATE THERE ARE A NUMBER OF
STATE DEPARTMENTS PRIMARILY
RESPONSIBLE FOR ADMINISTERING
THE STATE'S HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS. THOSE TO
BE THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT EACH CD
THE CALIFORNIA HOUSING FINANCE
AGENCY AND THE CALIFORNIA TAX
REVOCATION COMMITTEE AS WELL AS
I PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED THE
CALIFORNIA INTERAGENCY COUNCIL
ON. HOMELESSNESS THIS COUNCIL IN
ADDITION TO FUNCTIONS AS A
TRADITIONAL DEPARTMENT
ADMINISTERING HOMELESSNESS
PROGRAMS LIKE. THE HOMELESS
HOUSING ASSISTANCE AND
PREVENTION PROGRAM ALSO HAS A
BROADER ROLE IN ADDRESSING
HOMELESSNESS THE COUNCIL
CONVENES REPRESENTATIVES FROM A
NUMBER OF STATE DEPARTMENTS AND
SIX INSIGHTS FROM STAKEHOLDERS
TO DEVELOP POLICIES IDENTIFY
IMPORTANT RESOURCES AND SERVICES
THAT AIM. TO PREVENT AND ADDRESS
HOMELESSNESS IN THE STATE. AND
ADDITION TO THESE APART. THAT I
JUST. OTHER STATES DEPARTMENT
EITHER IN THIS STATE THINKING UP
PROGRAM HARD SORT OF MORE
TARGETED LIMITED ROLES IN
ADDRESSING HOUSING OR
HOMELESSNESS FOR EXAMPLE- THE
DEPARTMENT ACTIONS OF THEIR SINS
D. ONLY. HOTTEST SHE'S CONTINUED
TO CARE WHICH I MENTIONED- CHU
PARTED ADMINISTRATOR SERVICES
LOCALLY WITHIN A PARTICULAR AREA
OFTEN THAT COUNTY OR GROUP OF
COUNTIES. CITIES AND COUNTIES
MAKE LAND USE DECISIONS ON THEIR
COMMUNITIES THAT AFFECT HOUSING
AND THE OFFICER TO COLLABORATE
WITH THEIR LOCAL C. O. CAESAR
ANTHONY KEITH THE SERVICE YOUR
HAD THOSE EFFORTS TO ADDRESS
HOUSING AFFORDABILITY. AND
HOMELESSNESS IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES. FIND ASISTIR HOUSE
METAPHOR- HOUSING AFFORDABILITY
HOMELESS DISTRICT HAVE BECOME
MORE ACUTE THE STATE HAS TAKEN A
LARGER SURFACED ROLE IN FUNDING
AND SUPPORTING LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS. ADDITIONALLY THE
LEGISLATURE HAS ADOPTED A MAJOR
LEGISLATION AIMED AT ADDRESSING
THE HIGH COST OF HOUSING
CALIFORNIA. THE FIGURE ON PAGE
FOURTEEN AGGREGATES THE TOTAL
FOR MAJOR DISCRETIONARY SPENDING
ACTIONS WITHIN THE STATE
ENTITIES PRINCIPALLY RESPONSIBLE
FOR ADMINISTERING HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS THAT ME
CALIFIA EACH EACH CITY COUNCIL
BAY. ANTIOCH. THE TECHNOLOGY SHE
COMMITTEE. THANK IN TWO TWENTY
ONE TWENTY TWO FISCAL YEAR WITH
. THAT A PORTION OF
DISCRETIONARY FEDERAL FUNDS
PROVIDED TO THE STATE IN
RESPONSE THE COMPANY TEAM WERE
USED TO INCREASE FUNDING. TO
SUPPORT HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS
. THAT CONCLUDES MY COMMENTS FOR
THIS PORTION OF THE HEARING.
COVER THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF
THE HANDLE IN THE SUBSEQUENT
PANEL WHICH WILL DIE MORE
SPECIFICALLY INTO SOME OTHER
RECENT INVESTMENTS. THANK YOU
I'M HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS
WHEN APPROPRIATE FOR. THANK YOU
FOR THE POINT OF THAT OPENING
WAS TO GIVE SER THE BROAD
OVERVIEW OF WHAT- HOW WE COUNT
HOMELESS HOW MANY HOMELESS
THERE'S ESTIMATED TO BE IN
CALIFORNIA THE- AS WAS POINTED
OUT THE DIFFERENT. DEMOGRAPHICS
OF IT AND THE NEXT PANEL IS
GOING TO GO INTO IT- THE L. MS
MORALIS SO FAR JUST TALKED
ABOUT. THE DIFFERENT AGENCIES IN
THE STATE BUT NOT THE TOTAL
DOLLAR AMOUNTS AND THAT WILL BE
IN THE NEXT PANEL BUT IF THERE
ARE ANY QUESTIONS ANYONE WOULD
LIKE TO ASK ABOUT THE
PRESENTATION SO FAR. I'M SENATOR
CAFIERO. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
AND THANK YOU FOR THAT THE
PRESENTATION I APPRECIATE THAT
THE BACKGROUND AND- INFORMATION
ARE WE STILL. IS THE CURRENT
METHODOLOGY FOR. DETERMINING
WHETHER HOMELESS POPULATION IS
STILL THE POINT IN TIME COUNT IS
THAT IS THAT STILL THE ONLY WAY
WE DO THIS. SO THE POINT IN TIME
COUNT IS FEDERALLY REQUIRED IT'S
UPSTATE INFORMS FORMULAS ON HOW
THE STATE RECEIVES FEDERAL
FUNDING TO ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS
THE STATE ALSO USES IT IN THE
INTEREST OF THE MECHANISM TO
INFORM. ITS DISTRIBUTION OF
FUNDING. PRIMARILY THROUGH THE
HALF PROGRAM SO IT IS AN
IMPORTANT TOOL THAT I MENTIONED.
ALSO REPORTED TO RECOGNIZE THE
LIMITATIONS OF THAT IT DOES NOT
PROGRAM PROVIDE A COMPLETE COUNT
IN ALL CASES. SO RELYING ON
OTHERS NURSES ARE AVAILABLE TO
SORT OF FURTHER FLESHED OUT-
RELATIONS AND GET HURT BETTER TO
HOMELESS ISN'T. I'M SO IT IS.
THE BEST A WE HAVE A RECOGNIZE
THE LIMITED AND TRYING TO OTHER
TOOLS WERE AVAILABLE LIKE THE
EACH DAY I MENTIONED. WILL BE A
MOVING FORWARD OKAY. EIGHT IT
JUST SEEMS TO ME THAT THAT WE
USE. SYSTEM THAT ARE SO FRAUGHT
WITH PROBLEMS IF IT'S A DAY.
THEN IT THROWS OFF YOUR P. I. T.
AND- IT'S A LITTLE BIT LIKE WHEN
WE GO IN AND TEST THE SOIL WITH
A STICK. IN THE GROUND IT'S JUST
CRAZY IN IN THIS DAY AND AGE SO
I JUST THINK THINK WE OUGHT TO
THINK ABOUT. WHAT MIGHT BE
BETTER WAYS TO BE ABLE TO GET A
REALLY GOOD IDEA OF WHAT'S
HAPPENING OUT ON THE STREETS.
THANK YOU FOR THAT. RIGHT THE
LIST I HAVE IS A SENATOR LATER
THAN SENATOR ROBIN SENATOR VIDEO
. AND THEN SENATOR GROCERS
CENTER LURK THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
SEN. I WAS GOING TO RAISE THE
SAME ISSUE THAT SENATOR CAFIERO
RAISED. BUT JUST WITH FAT AND
PAID FOR. ON THE PRESENTATION
ABOUT. THE CHART OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESS. BOTH OF
THOSE ARE VERY URBAN CENTRIC.
AND IT IS SUCH THAT. IF YOU GO
IN A NON URBAN AREA AND TRY TO
DO ACCOUNT PEOPLE ARE REALLY.
HIDING FOR SAFETY. HIDING FOR
OTHER REASONS AND IT'S REALLY
HARD TO GET AT THEM. AND WE CAN
TALK ABOUT THAT MORE AT ONCE BUT
THE OTHER THING IS THAT LOOKING
ON PAGE FOR A TWO COUNT. IT JUST
DOES THE RAW NUMBERS AND SHOWS
THE OBVIOUS THING THAT BIG URBAN
AREAS HAVE THE BIGGEST COUNT.
BUT IT DOESN'T TAKE INTO
CONSIDERATION THAT SOME OF THE
NON URBAN AREAS HAVE A HIGHER
PER CAPITA HOMELESS POPULATION.
AND URBAN AREAS SO IF YOU ARE
GUIDING THE PROGRAMS WE'RE GONNA
TALK ABOUT IN THE NEXT PANEL-
HOW DO YOU HAVE PEOPLE IN
SMALLER GOVERNMENTS ARE SMALLER
AREAS TRYING TO GET AHEAD OF A
HIGHER PER CAPITA. OUT OF THING
AND I'M PREPARED TO TALK ABOUT
THAT MORE BUT I JUST WANTED TO
SORT OF MAKE THE- URBAN CENTRIC-
COMMENTS ON BOTH ACCOUNTING AND
THE POPULATION. I DON'T KNOW IF
YOU WANTED TO MAKE IN YOUR
RESPONSE OR NOT TO MISS MORALIS
. IT IT'S NOT A QUESTION PER SE.
BUT GO AHEAD. I WOULD JUST HAVE
A KNOWLEDGE OF THERE ARE UNIQUE
CHALLENGES IN ADDRESSING
HOMELESSNESS INTERNET MORE ROLES
TURNED. OUT COMMUNITIES THAT ARE
REALLY MORE CHALLENGES AND
HAVING TO THE COMMUNITIES
ORGANIZATIONS THAT CAN PROVIDE
SERVICES THAT IS. REALLY
SOMETHING THAT'S OF MERIT
CONSIDERATION. OF THE STATE
WHICH FORWARD- BEFORE A CALL
INSTEAD OF ROTH I THINK. POINT
THAT CENTER TO MAKE IT WE SHOULD
GET ACCOUNT PER CAPITA. BECAUSE
WHILE HE IS POINTING OUT THAT
THERE'S RURAL AREAS THAT HAVE
HIGHER PER CAPITA WITH IN URBAN
AREAS THERE ARE CITIES WITH
HIGHER PER CAPITA WHICH IS NOT
CAPTURED WITH WHAT WE- GET NOW.
SO I THINK ACCOUNT PER CAPITA IT
IS HELPFUL BECAUSE I THINK
PERSONALLY I THINK THAT- WELL WE
DO NOT HAVE. ADEQUATE FUNDS TO
DIRECT. TOWARDS COMPLETELY
SOLVING THIS OR YOU KNOW CAUSING
ALL UNSHELTERED PEOPLE TO BE
HOUSE TOMORROW WE CERTAINLY
COULD DIRECT THE FUNDS WHERE THE
GREATEST POPULATION IT IS IF WE
HAD THAT KIND OF COUNT. SENATOR
ROTH. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR YOU
KNOW WHEN I WAS. HEARING FOR
THIS HEARING AND READING THE
BINDER THAT I WAS PROVIDED I WAS
CERTAINLY IMPRESSED WITH THE-
NUMBER AND BREADTH OF PROGRAMS
THAT WE HAVE IN PLAY IN THE
HOUSING AND HOMELESS. ARENA IN
THE AMOUNT OF MONEY ACTUALLY
THAT WAS ALSO HIS ALSO INVOLVED
IN THEM. AND IT ALSO OCCURRED TO
ME THAT- I WAS HAVING SOME
DIFFICULTY ASSESSING. THE
PROGRAMS THEMSELVES AND I'M JUST
WONDERING THROWING THIS OUT TO
THE ALLEY OF THIS MAY BE MORE
APPROPRIATE FOR THE NEXT PANEL.
BUT WHETHER WE ACTUALLY HAVE
DESIGNED A MATRIX TO. MEASURE
THE IMPACT AND EFFECTIVENESS OF
ALL OF THESE PROGRAMS
INDIVIDUALLY AND- COLLECTIVELY.
THAT'S MY FIRST THROW OUT. AND
THEN THE OTHER QUICK QUESTION I
HAVE IS WHERE IS THE- SUBJECT OF
MENTAL HEALTH DIAGNOSIS AND
TREATMENT OF THE HOMELESS
INTERSECT WITH OUR- FUNDING OF
THESE NUMEROUS HOUSING AND-
HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION PROGRAMS
BECAUSE- OBVIOUSLY THERE ARE
SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE. HOMELESS
FOR REASONS ASSOCIATED WITH LOSS
OF A JOB MEDICAL EXPENSES A
WHOLE VARIETY OF OTHER. LIFE OF
SITUATIONS AND CRISES AND THEN.
IN ADDITION TO THAT THERE ARE IT
SEEMS TO ME SOME PERCENTAGE OF
THOSE WHO ARE HOMELESS WHO ARE
HOMELESS. BECAUSE THEY DON'T
WISH TO BE SHELTERED PERHAPS
BECAUSE THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND
BECAUSE PERHAPS BECAUSE THEY
HAVE A MENTAL ILLNESS SO MY
QUESTION RELATES TO THE
INTERSECTION OF OUR MENTAL
HEALTH PROGRAMS AND FUNDING WAS
HER HOUSING AND HOMELESS
PROGRAMS I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S
APPROPRIATE FOR YOU. MADAM
HELLO- CENTER. ONE THING ONE
SECONDS- A MISSILE I THINK WE
WILL ASK HER TO RESPOND BUT ALSO
YOU CAN DIRECT THAT QUESTION IN
A LATER PANEL TO DOCTOR GOLLY
ADDITIONALLY GO AHEAD MISS
MORALES. THANK YOU- TO BEGIN TO
THE FIRST PART OF YOUR QUESTION
ABOUT HOW WE START THAT'S THE
PROGRAM THAT MENTIONED WE ARE IN
THE MIDST COMPILING SOME
INFORMATION TO PACKAGE AS PART
OF OUR SERVICES SEGMENT BUDGET
ANALYSES. IN THE WEEKS TO COME
BUT I WOULD SAY AS WE THINK
ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS THEY ALL
HAVE A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT
GOALS AND SAYS WE THINK ABOUT
SORT OF WHAT THE DELIVERABLE
OUTCOME IS WE CERTAINLY DON'T.
ADJUSTED TO WHAT THE MISSION OF
THE PROGRAM IS IN SOME CASES THE
PROGRAM IS REALLY ABOUT.
BUILDING A ADDITIONAL CONCERN
THAT ROCK COUNT WILL BE REALLY
IMPORTANT IN OTHER CASES IT'S
ABOUT- PROVIDING. MORE SERVICE
SAYS. OR PERHAPS IN A- LANDERS
ARE STILL AND HE PROJECTS WILL
LEAD TO THAN ITS OWN TIME. UNTIL
THAT SOMETHING COMES SHE'S OUT
LASH OUT WE THINK ABOUT A- THE
EFFECTIVENESS THESE PRO. ARE
OTHER. AS WILL GET AND SOME OF
THE- SPENDING. THE FUNDING.
RIGHT THE DOLLAR BILL BEHAVIOR
HELL INFRASTRUCTURE. SO SORT OF
MARK. TO SEARCH OUR PEOPLE.
HEALTH NEEDS EXPERIENCE HOMELESS
. THE SERVICE IS A WRAPAROUND
AND SUPPORT THE NEEDED TO
SUPPORT THE IS SOMETHING THAT
JUST. PROVIDED ON COUNTY LEVEL
SORT OF. HELLO- LAST OF THE
HELPING HUMANS. AGENCY SERVICE
MORE HOW THEY- FACILITIES ARE.
SIDE OF THE SPECTRUM. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH THANK YOU MA'AM.
CERTAINLY SAID PRETTY. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH FANFARE FOR INFORM FOR
THE DISCUSS SORT AN HAVE IN THE
HONOR OF INSURANCE FOR A LOOK
FORWARD. HAVING MUCH CALM-
INTEGRATE SORT OF CONVERSATION
AROUND THE ISSUES I THINK JUST A
COUPLE BRIEF COMMENTS FIRST.
GOING TO BE VERY INTERESTED AS
WE GET INTO THE- PANEL
DISCUSSION A LITTLE BIT LATER
ABOUT THE STRATEGIC SORT OF
INTERSECTION. BETWEEN ALL OF
THE- VARIOUS COMPLEX ELEMENTS
THAT CONTRIBUTE TO FOLKS
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS EITHER
IN A LONG TERM OR CUTE SORT OF
SITUATION- AND THERE ARE A LOT
OF DIMENSIONS TO THAT AND
CERTAINLY- UNDERSTANDING- THE
PROPOSALS BY THE ADMINISTRATION
AND CONSIDERING FROM THE
LEGISLATURE HOW WE MIGHT MEASURE
EFFECTIVENESS AND IMPACT
PARTICULARLY IN AN ENVIRONMENT
WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT. REDUCED
RESOURCES ARE DIFFERING- THE
APPLICATION OF RESOURCES- YOU
KNOW I'LL BE MOVING UP OF. THE
BILL ACROSS THIS AFTERNOON THAT
ADDRESSES ONE OF THE KEY FACTORS
THAT WE TEND TO OVERLOOK A LOT
OF THE- RESOURCES- FOCUS THAT'S
PROPOSED TO MAINTAIN SEEM TO BE
ON THE- PRODUCTION SIDE OF
HOUSING TO ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS
AND THAT IS VERY CRITICAL
ELEMENT- BUT THERE'S A BIG PIECE
OF THAT. IN TERMS OF THE WEIGHT
STANDARD- THE FACT THAT A
LARGER. AND LARGER SEGMENT OF
THE STATE'S WORKFORCE OR DESPITE
THE AMOUNT OF HOURS THEY WORK
WHICH IS SLOWLY CREEPING UP ABLE
TO SUSTAIN THEMSELVES. IN TERMS
OF THEIR BASIC NEEDS TO SORT OF
THE WHITE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM.
AND AT SOME POINT IN THE BROADER
DISCUSSIONS GOING TO NEED TO BE
ADDRESSED- BECAUSE THAT JUST
SIMPLY CAN'T BE IGNORED SO. I'M
REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THE
CONVERSATION- LOOKING FORWARD
CERTAINLY THAT'S HOW WE MIGHT
INTEGRATE AND MAXIMIZE IMPACT.
ACROSS ALL THE FACTORS INVOLVED-
AND SEEING- HOW WE'RE PROPOSING
TO ALLOCATE RESOURCES IN TERMS
OF WHERE THE FOCUS IS- AND NOT
JUST ON THE PRODUCTION SIDE- AND
ALSO HOW WE HOW WE MEASURE
IMPACT. IN IN A VERY CLEAR WAY
SO APPRECIATE THE CONVERSATION.
VENTURE THANK YOU. CERTAINLY
CENTER DRAWS TO AN END- CENTER
SMALLWOOD CUEVAS AND SENATOR
NEAL. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR-
GOOD. GOOD FROM- MY COLLEAGUE
FROM SAN DIEGO- IS THE- JUST
BROADLY SAME BECAUSE- FROM THE
L. A. O. AND I WILL BE ASKING
THIS THE PANEL MEMBERS AS WELL.
FAMILIES LIVING ON THE EDGE OF
THE ECONOMIC YOU FICTION- WHAT
DOES THAT LOOK LIKE WHAT'S THAT
PICTURE. BECAUSE IT'S GOT TO BE
HELPFUL WE HAVE TO KNOW WHAT
THAT IS. AS WE ADDRESS
HOMELESSNESS BECAUSE- WE CAN
JUST BE. HELPING FAMILIES AND
PEOPLE WERE ALREADY HOMELESS ON
HOUSE. BUT THEN EVERY DAY THERE
COULD BE MORE. HOW MANY MORE HI
HOW DO WE ADDRESS THAT AND
UNFORTUNATELY RIGHT NOW WE'RE
TREATING HOUSING AS A BUSINESS.
ISSUE NOT AS- A HUMAN RIGHTS.
ISSUE- SO ANY ANY THOUGHTS ABOUT
HOW WE GET. YOU KNOW THE KIND OF
INFORMATION THE KIND OF
STATISTICS THAT WOULD HELP US
BECAUSE WE'RE WE'RE JUST GOING
TO BE SPINNING OUR WHEELS HERE
UNLESS WE FIND A SIGNIFICANT WAY
AND I. I THINK THAT ONE OF THOSE
IS THESE ECONOMIC YOU FICTIONS
THAT WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN THE
WORST OF. ANY THOUGHTS. IMAGINE
MY SURPRISE OPENING COMMENTS
WHICH ONE POINT FIVE. MILLION
CALIFORNIANS THAT SPEND MORE
THAN 50% OF THEIR INCOME ON
HOUSING AND SO CLOSELY FOR THOSE
YOU KNOW THE HARDSHIPS AND
SOMETHING'S NOT GOING RIGHT
COULD TURN OF REALLY NEED TO
SORT OF- THERE HOUSING. BEING
LOST. THIS IS AN AREA AROUND
EVICTIONS WHERE WE REALLY
SERVICE RELATIONAL DATA
UNFORTUNATELY UNCLEAR WHAT STATE
MY DATA THERE IS ON A MISSION
FILENE CENTER. COME OF THOSE. WE
ANSWER LOOK INTO INFORMATION
COMPILED BY THE COURTS BUT
THERE'S SOME SORT OF CHALLENGES
THAT SORT OF MAKE IT DIFFICULT
TO HAVE A SORT OF COMPLETE
PICTURE- WE KNOW THAT THERE WERE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT PROVIDE
DETECTION SYSTEMS THAT IS THAT
IT HAS ROLLED OUT. AND HELD-
ADDRESS AT LEAST THROUGH THE
IMMEDIATE CONCERNS AROUND SORT
OF- WEIGHT LIMITATIONS IN THE
LINE OF THE COMPANY TEAM KINDA
NEXT- BUT THIS IS SOMETHING TO
REMAINS- BERMAN DIDN'T PARTY
ISSUE. AND THERE IS A TON OF.
READILY AVAILABLE STEALING DATA
TO GIVE US A COMPLETE PICTURE.
OF CERTAIN WITH THE SPECIFICALLY
ARRESTOR HOW MANY FILINGS THERE
ARE ON GOING ON A STATEWIDE
LEVEL. SO THAT'S NOT AVAILABLE
TO US. NOT THAT WE SORT OF KNOW
BUT LET'S FIND. OUT FROM. THANK
YOU THANK YOU SIR SMALLWOOD.
THANK YOU SO MUCH MADAM AND
REALLY IF. THIS OF ROBUST COME.
AND DIALOGUE AND COME MADE- BY
MY- ABOUT- OUR POINT OF THE- IN
MY VIEW IN TERM OF. ECKLEY IN IN
L. A. COUNTY WHERE WE HAVE THAT
HUGE BULL'S-EYE IN TERMS OF HOW
WE ARE IMPACTED. BY THIS CRISIS.
OUR POINT OF DEPARTURE IS AN
ECONOMY WHERE THERE ARE FAR TOO
MANY COMMUNITIES ARE AN ECONOMIC
CRISIS AND- HAVING WORKED FOR
MANY YEARS REPRESENTING WORKERS
IN LOW WAGE AND WAGE. REALITIES
PARTICULARLY BLACK WORKERS WE
SEE A DISPROPORTIONATE. ECONOMIC
IMPACT THAT NOW IS RESULTING IN
A DISPROPORTIONATE- HOMELESSNESS
IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY- I'M
CURIOUS. ABOUT THE WAYS IN WHICH
- WE RECONCILED THE NINE
PERCENT. AND THE 30% 9% OF THE
POPULATION. BLACK CALIFORNIANS
30% OF THE HOMELESSNESS
POPULATION WE ZOOM INTO THAT BIG
BULLS EYE ON LA. RIGHT IT JUMPS
FROM SIX PERCENT. 42% THE
DISPARITY INSIDE OF THE
DISPARITIES MY QUESTION AND WHEN
I LOOK AT THE LIST OF FUNDING
SOURCES IT'S UNCLEAR IN TERMS OF
THE POLICY DESIGNED
IMPLEMENTATION EVALUATION AND
THE SERVICE DELIVERY HOW MUCH OF
THIS IS TARGETING THESE
DISPARITIES PARTICULARLY THE
RACIAL DISPARITY IF YOU CAN
IMAGINE. WHAT HOMELESSNESS IS
FOR THE ENTIRE STATE AND HOW WE
ARE OLD REVEALING. IT ONLY GIVES
YOU A GLIMPSE OF WHAT THAT FEELS
LIKE INSIDE OF A POPULATION THAT
IS JUST 6% THAT'S CARING FORTY
PERCENT. OF HOMELESSNESS VERSION
THAT IS A COMPLETELY
DESTABILIZED COMMUNITIES SO YOU
KNOW MY QUESTION IS. WHAT IS THE
WAYS IN WHICH WE ARE OF OUR AT
ANALYZING IN LOOKING AT OUR
TARGET POPULATIONS PARTICULARLY
THOSE THAT ARE OVER BURDEN. IN
THIS CRISIS BY. REYES AND HOW
ARE WE PROVIDING CULTURALLY
COMPETENT. TOOLS AND REMEDIES
AND FUNDING TO ADDRESS THAT VERY
TARGETED. POPULATION WE KNOW
THERE'S A LOT HAS BEEN SAID
ABOUT PROP TWO OH NINE- WHICH IS
A ANY MORAL LAW IN MY VIEW THAT
DOES NOT ALLOW US TO BE EXPLICIT
IN MANDATING. DIVERSITY AND
INCLUSION AND EQUITY. SO IN THAT
CONTEXT THOUGH THE SUFFERING IS
REAL AND. WE'RE WE'RE NOT EVEN
ABLE TO REALLY EVEN MEASURE HOW
QUICKLY- IT'S GROWING BECAUSE
WE'RE MISSING THAT THAT VERY
IMPORTANT DATA. BUT WHAT ARE THE
WAYS THAT WE CAN ENSURE THAT WE
ARE. ETHNOLOGY THE UNIQUE WAYS
IN WHICH THIS CRISIS IS
PARALYZING AND DESTABILIZING AND
CREATING SO MUCH SUFFERING
PARTICULARLY IN IN BLACK

HOMELESSNESS IN THEIR OWN
COMMUNITIES AS A PROP HAS BECOME
MORE THE STATE YOU CAN MUCH MORE
ACT SORT OF CRIME SERVICE FISCAL
. IN ADDRESSING ON THE MAKING
ADDITIONAL DOLLARS SOMETHING
ABOUT THE DOLLAR READILY OF THE
TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS SO THEY
ADDRESS. HOMELESS IN THEIR CA.
AS I MENTIONED THAT MONEY HAS
GONE TO SORT OF FORMULA INFORM
BY THE WRIST OF THE POINT IN
TIME COUNT SEPARATED LARGEST
DOLLARS THE AREA WHERE THERE ARE
A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING. THE STATE HAS TO
THIS POINT LARGELY A LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS TO MAKE THEIR
DISCRETIONARY DECISION ABOUT HOW
TO ALLOCATE THOSE DOLLARS TO
ADDRESS THE SPECIFIC NEEDS FOR
POPULATIONS WITHIN THEIR OWN
COMMUNITIES- IT USUALLY THERE IS
VERY. SORT OF REPORT AROUND
HELLO GOVERNMENTS WERE DOING THE
I'D SAY. THAT AS ROGUE HAS A BY
. AROUND AT THAT HAVE COME THE
LEGISLATURE BUT IN ADDITION OVER
- AND SORT OF MARBLES
ACCOUNTABILITY THE STATE IN FACT
A LITTLE. ARE GIVEN TO THE TIME
OF FATHER. THE REPORT IT IS
COMING BACK TO THE STATE YOU
KNOW HAVE ALL THAT. AT THIS. I
AGREE WITH SERVICE CENTERS
THAT'S RIGHT HERE IN THE
DESTROYED. AND FROM SOME STATE
THAT ARE PRESENTED. ABOUT HOW
THEY'RE. LOCALLY BE REALLY
IMPORTANT. TO KEEP SUCH AS TO
CLARIFY YOUR SAY THAT THE STATE
DOESN'T. OR HAVE NOT. IN IN ANY
WAY TRACKED THE WAY IN WHICH-
THOSE DOLLARS HAVE APPLY. TO THE
- TARGETED POPULAR THAT IS JUST
. IMPACTED BY. AND THIS AND WE
TALK ABOUT THE BLACK. YOUR THE
STATE NOT THAT. I'LL LEAVE IT A
CERTAIN. EASE B. C. S. H.
SPECIFICALLY THIS BUT I DON'T
WANT TO HAVE CIRCLING. THINKING
BROADLY ABOUT HOW THIS HAS TO DO
RESOURCES TO LOCAL OF THE MAKE
SURE THERE DECISIONS ABOUT JUST
. IT'S TO LET BEEN BY THE
ACCOUNT RESULT TO THIS POINT.
ALL RIGHT SO NEW OF. THANK YOU
VENTURE- IT HIT- FITTING THE WE
HAVE THIS AS THE FIRST OVER
HEARING. SINCE SO AND IS ONE OF
THE SICK CHANGE FACE OUR- RIGHT
NOW AND- WITH REGARD TO THE- BUT
BUDGET PROCESS- THAT OF COURSE
REFLECTS OUR PRIORITIES AS A
STATE AND- AND- WELL WE WILL
HAVE TO CUT AND THE FOR- THERE
IS STILL A SUBSTANTIAL GENERAL
FUND CERTAINLY- CHRIS COMPARED
TO THAT WHICH I LEFT TWELVE
YEARS AGO. AND THE DEGREE TO
WHICH WE CUT OR DIFFER AND THE
DEGREE TO WHICH WE FUND SHOULD
REFLECT OUR PRIORITIES RELATIVE
TO HOMELESSNESS AND OTHER
PARTIES TO I HAVE A COMMENT AND
A QUESTION. THE COMMENT RELATES
TO THE- CHALLENGES AND-
COLLECTING ACCURATE INFORMATION
AND THESE A POINT IN TIME
COUNTS- THEY ARE AS THE L. A.
COLE POINTED OUT IMPRECISE AT
BEST. AND I RECALL AN ARTICLE
THAT I READ IN THE NEWSPAPER
ABOUT A POINT IN TIME COUNT A
FEW YEARS AGO WHERE THEY WERE-
THAT THE ARTICLE WAS ATTEMPTING
TO DISPEL MYTHS. AND TWO OF THE
MESSES THAT- HOMELESSNESS PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IS
SIGNIFICANTLY I MENTAL HEALTH
AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUE AND IN
THE ARTICLE SUBMITTED THAT NO IT
REALLY WASN'T. BECAUSE THEY
ASKED THEM. WHETHER THEY WERE
MENTALLY ILL OR ABUSING
SUBSTANCES- THE NEWSPAPER
ARTICLE ACTUALLY SAID THAT BUT-
THE QUESTION I HAVE IS ON PAGE
NINE THE GRAPH THAT SHOWS THE
TREND IN HOMELESSNESS. IS
STRIKING. BECAUSE YOU'LL SEE
THAT THERE IS A GRADUAL DECLINE
IN HOMELESSNESS. UP TO THE YEAR
TWENTY FIFTEEN AND SIXTEEN. AND
THEN WE HAVE THE X. THAT WE
EXPERIENCED. TWENTY SIXTEEN WAS
THE YEAR IN WHICH CALIFORNIA
ADOPTED HOUSING FIRST AS ITS
GUIDING POLICY RELATIVE TO
HOMELESSNESS SO. MY QUESTION OF
THE- OF THE- L. A. O. IS. DO YOU
THINK THAT THAT RELATIONSHIP IS
MERE COINCIDENCE OR IS THERE A
DIRECT RELATIONSHIP OF THE
AFFECT THAT- HOUSING FIRST MIGHT
HAVE HAD. ON OUR INABILITY TO
ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS AND DO YOU
HAVE INFORMATION ON OTHER
PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE- STATE
OR THE COUNTRY THAT. TEND TO TRY
TO CIRCUMVENT THAT IN PARTICULAR
THAT IN- SAN ANTONIO TEXAS.
THANK YOU SENATORS WHO ARE ALSO
SAID THAT THEM THE NINA- WELL NO
OF REASON- THERE THERE ARE OF
REASONS THE PERSON OF MY- BECOME
. THAT'S PRIMARY IS THE HIGH
COST OF IN THE STATE OF ISRAEL
SAY THAT. THE HOUSING OF IS A
HOUSING HAVE MORE YOU FOR THE
MAIN DRAW. OF THAT WOULD IN TWO
IN YOUR SEE ON THE- YOU BROUGHT
- WE DON'T HAVE ANY OF SPECIFIC
COMMENTS ARE EUROPE HOUSING

STATE BECAUSE WE ARE WE ARE TALK
DOWN LEGISLATION AND FUNDING
WHAT I'M HEARING IS- KERN IS A
COLONEL ALONG THE SAME LINES AS
A SENATOR LAYERED BROUGHT OUT-
AT LEAST IN THE VERY FAST RULE
AREAS OF A PART. OF MY DISTRICT
. WE'RE FINE THAT IT WE GAVE ONE
TIME MONIES WHICH IS VERY
DIFFICULT FOR A COUNTY OR CITY
OR PROVIDER TO REALLY DO A PLAN
ON ONE TIME MONIES BECAUSE
THEY'RE TRYING TO. GET MENTAL
HEALTH- CLINICIANS THEY'RE
TRYING TO DEAL DEAL WITH DRUG
AND ALCOHOL ISSUES HOUSING ALL
THOSE THINGS NOT KNOWING. THAT
THERE FUNDING SOURCE HOW LONG
THE FUNDING SOURCE IS GOING TO
BE AVAILABLE THAT'S WHAT I'M
HEARING SO IT'S VERY. DIFFICULT
TO PLAN OR TO EVEN HIRE SOMEBODY
IF YOU DON'T HAVE. A FUNDING
SOURCE THAT IS GOING TO GO IN
THE FUTURE I JUST WANT TO ASK AT
HAVE YOU. REACHED OUT TO THE
PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY
PROVIDING THE SERVICES THAT'S
THE- THE COUNTY HEALTH.
DEPARTMENTS IN THE CITY'S- THERE
ON THE FRONT LINES OF DEALING
WITH THIS. THAT COULD MEAN A
VARIETY OF STAKEHOLDERS-
INCLUDING THE STATE STATE.

HOMELESS EMERGENCY AID PROGRAM
KNOWN AS HE- RIGHT IT'S SORT OF
THE LAW CITY AND ON MONDAY FOR
IDEA. TERM HEALTH SOLUTION FOR
PEOPLE THAT HOMELESS. SUCH A
SHELTER AND RAPID RE HOUSING. I
WOULD HAVE CONSIDERED EVERY BUT
AS YOU CAN SEE SORT OF OVERALL
ABOUT BILLION DOLLARS IN
DISCRETIONARY FUNDING HAS BEEN
APPROPRIATED IN RECENT YEARS TO
ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS IN THESE
DEPARTMENTS. NEARLY FIVE POINT
FOUR BILLION DOLLARS TO THE
INTERAGENCY COUNCIL ON

LOCAL GOVERNMENT EFFORTS TO

COMMUNITIES. TWO POINT THREE
BILLION TO DSS PRIMARILY TO
EXPAND HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS
SUPPORTS FOR PEOPLE
PARTICIPATING IN SOME OF THE
STATE SAFETY NET PROGRAMS AN
IMPORTANT POINT SIX BILLION
DOLLARS TO DH CS PRIMARILY
BRITAIN. TO SUPPORT PEOPLE WITH
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS. IN I
WONDER THAT THE TABLE THE MAJORS
THE DISK. SPENDING ACTION
RELATED TO. HOMELESSNESS FOR THE
FOR THE DEPARTMENT. IN SOME
CASES FOREST DO YOU SAYS THE-
HOUSING TO PROGRAM PROGRAMS ON
BASE FUNDING OF. BEFORE THE EACH
NINETEEN SCHOOL YEAR WHICH I NOT
REFLECTED ON THE STEEP. FIVE
EACH SIXTEEN WITH JUST HI SORT
OF HEAT WAVE THE REASON STATE TO
ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS. OVERALL
THE HASN'T INCREASED ROLE IN.
HOMELESSNESS BY PROVIDING SEEN
ALTHOUGH MOST WANTED AND TIME
BUT FOR THE FIRST. AND IT LOOKS
INTO LAW GOVERNMENT IN RECENT
YEARS. THANK YOU THAT CONCLUDES
MY FOR THE PORTION. ALL RIGHT-
BEFORE I GO TO THE PANELIST
THERE IS ANY SO. QUESTION ABOUT
THESE- THESE PARTICULAR
ALLOCATIONS. US SENATOR. GRAVEST
THE ONE QUESTION I HAD IN TERMS
OF THE PROCREATION HAVE THERE
BEEN ANY FUNDS- OFFERED IN BY
THE STATE IN FUNDING TO DEAL
WITH THE ISSUE OF HOUSING
DISCRIMINATION. ENFORCEMENT
THROUGH WHAT WAS THEN THE
DEPARTMENT OF FAIR EMPLOYMENT
AND HOUSING OR CIVIL RIGHTS
OFFICE THERE WAS AN EXHAUSTIVE
STUDY DONE IN L. A. COUNTY- A
COMMITTEE THAT WAS FOCUSED ON
HOUSING IMPACTS IN IN THE IN THE
BLACK COMMUNITY IN PARTICULAR.
AND THE ANALYSIS JUST SHOWED
VERY DISTINCT HOUSING AND
EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION IN
TERMS OF. PRIVATE LANDLORDS- NOT
OFFERING HOUSING- TO- BLACK
APPLICANTS WHO WERE JUST TRYING
TO FIND AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR
THEIR. THEIR CHILDREN AND- IN
MANY CASES WHERE. WITH A PRICE
HOUSING MARKET RIGHT- THAT IS
SUPPLYING AFFORDABLE- SUBSIDIZED
HOUSING AND INCREASINGLY THAT
IMPLICIT SOMETIMES EXPLICIT BIAS
COMES INTO THAT PROCESS AND SO I
DON'T SEE ANY. PARTICULAR
INVESTMENT AND THOSE KINDS OF
HOUSING ACCESS- ATTY JEEZ WHICH
IS TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE
HISTORIC AND CURRENT BIAS THAT
IS IN THE HOUSING MARKET
PARTICULARLY FOR BLACK IN-
IMMIGRANT- RENTER'S. THANK YOU
SENATOR TO CORRECT THE CIVIL
RIGHTS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH OF
THE OVERSIGHT INTO OVER
SHOULDN'T THAT- LEVERAGING OTHER
ARE NOT DISCRIMINATE THE AREA OF
THE HOUSING AND- WE DON'T HAVE
THAT LISTED. I WOULD TRADE
OVERSEE YEARS THERE BEEN TO
PROVIDE MORE RESOURCES PERSONAL
TO THE TO SORT OF EXPAND PASSED
. WILL ALSO HIGH THERE IS LESS
WE AROUND JUST AGAINST- SOURCES
INCOME SO ESSENTIALLY INSURANCE
THERE'S NO DISCRIMINATION FOR
SOMEONE THAT'S USING BACK
HOUSING. AND THERE'S RESEARCH TO
IT WILL THAT LAW- WANTED TO
FOLLOW THE WITH YOUR OFFICE JUST
SPECIFIC AROUND THE- THIS IS.
HATE SENATOR. THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR- ENSURE PRISON ON THESE
THIS MAJOR REASON HOUSING ON. I
JUST HAVE A- GEN QUESTION
REGARDING THEM AND AGAIN IT'S
BETTER FOR THE ONE GUESS THIS IS
A NAY PANELS WE'LL SEE. YEAH THE
ISSUE FOR ME IS WHAT WHAT'S THE
OVERALL PLAN. FOR THIS
PARTICULAR GENERAL AREA WHICH IS
HOUSING HOMELESS HOMELESSNESS
AND I UNDERSTAND IT'S COMPLEX
BECAUSE WE HAVE BOTH STATE WE OF
THE COUNTING CITIES INVOLVED. A
PERHAPS OTHER STAKEHOLDERS BUT
OF COURSE YOU NEED A PLAN IN
ORDER TO MEASURE WHETHER WHAT
YOU HAVE AT THE UP AT THE END
IS. IS EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE
AND ACCOMPLISHES THE OBJECTIVE
SO IF I WERE TO GO TO EACH OF
THESE LINE ITEMS- THESE
DISCRETIONARY HOUSING SPENDING
AUGMENTATIONS- IN THE BUDGET
WHAT I FIND. IN THE BUDGET OR
ELSEWHERE. A STATEMENT OF GOALS
AND OBJECTIVES IN OTHER WORDS
WHAT WE EXPECT TO GET. FROM
ADAPTIVE REUSE AT A HUNDRED AND
FIFTY MILLION AND TWO HUNDRED
FIFTY MILLION FOR PROGRAM TOTAL
OF. FOUR HUNDRED MILLION.
DOLLARS. IT'S A FAIR QUESTION.
THANK YOU THERE ARE DESERTED
MOST CASES THERE WAS LEGISLATION
THAT ESTABLISHED THESE PROGRAMS
FROM THE LATE OUT THAT THE SCOPE
AND MISSION OF THE PROGRAM- THE
- I'D FOR THE FUND AND PROVIDE
TO THE ENERGY COSTS ON A- ITS
PRIMARY. A TOOL TO GET ME OUT TO
LOCAL AND PREVIOUSLY SO THEY CAN
ALMOST AND THERE CAN. WHEN IS
SERVICES IN PRIME TO PROVIDE
ADDITION HOUSING. TO PEOPLE
PARKS IN THAT FOR EXAMPLE PEOPLE
THAT ARE TO BE CAL ARE OF THE
WELFARE SYSTEM WHICH THEN FOR
EACH IT'S PRIMARILY BEEN OR-
BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE FOR P.
WITH BEEKEEPER HEALTH NEEDS
THAT'S A MATTER HOW WE ORGANIZE
. ON RESEARCH TO THE POINT-
HELLO MORE SPECIFIC TO ON ANY
THESE THANK YOU IN BUT THEN I
FIND I KNOW YOU UNDER THAT IT'S
TO. FOR US TO A IN OVERSIGHT. IN
TWO- DEAL WITH THE OF BILL. WHEN
THERE'S NOT AS GOAL IN OF. SET
OUT EITHER BY US AT THE STATE
LEVEL OR BY THE LOCALS FINAL TO
US AT THE BEGINNING SO THAT WE
CAN MEASURE WHAT THE OUTCOME IS
AND WHETHER IT'S GOOD BAD. OR
INDIFFERENT MINNESOTA YOUR ISSUE
BUT IT'S AN ISSUE THAT WE HAVE
TO GRAPPLE WITH AT SOME POINT
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR. CERTAINLY
SENATOR- MISS ROSE. I'M LOOKING
AT THE CHART. AND I SEE THAT
PROJECT- ROOM KEY IS- SPELLED
OUT. AND IT MAY BE THAT I'M JUST
FORGETTING WHAT ACRONYM WE USED
FOR PROJECT HOME KEY BUT WHICH
OF THESE ALLOCATIONS
INCORPORATES PROJECT TOKI. THE
HOME HERE REFLECT ON THE- PAGE.
IT'LL BE SIX UNDER OUT WE HAVE
HAD A AS A HOW. PROGRAMS DID THE
BROOM HE IS MASTER DEPARTMENT
OFFICIALS. OR HOME SHE AND HER
SORT OF IT. LEAVE TRUE THAT
WOULD OF. THOUGHT OF AS MORE SH
TERM INJURY. THE HEIGHT OF THE
PANDEMIC WHEREAS HOMES. ALLOW
PER LOOK RESEARCH THOSE AND HOW
THOSE UNITS OF. FOR IN TRAVEL
WORKER HOW AND MINISTER FOR CD
SO FOR THAT WE SORT OF. ROOM HE
HAS A WHOLE PRO AND THEN HOKIES
OFTEN THAT TEAM AND- HELLO PH
INTEREST THIRD THERE ARE RACES
SET OF AN ISSUE FOR US IN TERMS
OF HOW WE LOOK AT THE- IS THE-
CLEARLY MOST. ARE PRO STEP THE
MOST FOR TO HOUSING.
NOT INADEQUATE HOUSING SUPPLY IN
THE COST OF HOUSING. THERE'S
OTHER FACTORS TOO BUT THOSE ARE
THE PRIMARY FOR WHY CALIFORNIA
IS- HAS SUCH A HIGHER PROPORTION
OF HOMELESS THAN OTHER STATES-
HOWEVER WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT
THIS. WE ADMIT TO SOMETHING OUR
SUBCOMMITTEE IS I DON'T KNOW
WHETHER- WHETHER ALL ASPECTS IT
STAFF TO PREPARE SOMETHING FOR
US THAT GIVES US A LITTLE- A
LITTLE MORE INFO ON YOU KNOW
EITHER THE- DIRECTIONS IN. MANY
OF THESE OBVIOUSLY WERE
APPROPRIATIONS BUT THEY HAD
ASSOCIATED TRAILER TRAILER BILL
SOME OF THEM WERE A SEPARATE
POLICY BILLS BUT SOME OF THE
MORE TRAILER TRAILER BILL AND
THEY OBVIOUSLY WOULD COMMUNICATE
IN THAT WHAT THE A SPECIFIC
OBJECTIVE OR THE DIRECTION IN TO
WORK GERMS OF WHAT POPULATION
AND SUCH. BUT THAT WOULD BE
HELPFUL BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING
OF HOCKEY IS THAT IT WHAT YES IT
IS A HOUSING PROGRAM AND IT IS.
AIMED TOWARDS PROVIDING
PERMANENT HOUSING IT WAS
DIRECTED TO SUPPORT PEOPLE WHO
ARE ON HOUSE VERSES- A PERSON
WHO MAY BE SPENDING 50% OF THEIR
INCOME ON RENT- ANYWAY THOSE A-
I'M GLAD I ASKED THE QUESTION
BECAUSE I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT.
THAT HE IS THE L. A. O. HAD- IN
TERMS OF THE CHARTS MADE THAT.
NOW WHAT I'M GONNA SUGGEST IS
THAT WE HAVE ALL OF THE REST OF
THE PANELISTS SPEAK BEFORE WE
ASK QUESTIONS BECAUSE I THINK
THAT THEY'RE GOING TO- PROVIDE
US IN DETAIL THAT. AS WE ARE
ALREADY IS ALREADY CLEAR MUCH OF
THIS- OVERLAPS AND WHILE WE
WON'T HEAR FROM ONE OF THE
PROVIDERS IN THIS NEXT PANEL
WHAT WE WILL HEAR FROM WHEN WE
DO HEAR FROM THAT PROVIDER IS
HOW THEY RECEIVE. IT AFFECT
MINUTES- TEN TWELVE. THIRTY
FIVE. DIFFERENT SOURCES OF FUNDS
AND SO THEY ARE TRYING TO COBBLE
TOGETHER A LOT OF THINGS IN THE
DELIVERY OF THEIR SERVICES. BUT
LET US GO. TO OUR- NEXT PANEL.
FOR RATHER OUR NEXT PANELIST BUT
HERE FROM ALL OF THEM BEFORE WE
THEN ASK QUESTIONS SO WE WILL
START WITH- THEIR CHEEKY WITH
GRANDMA AND I HOPE THAT I HAVE
NOT- BUTCHERED YOUR NAME. PLEASE

HAVE CLEAR PLANS TO ADDRESS
DISPARITIES IN HOUSING WITHIN
THE COMMITTEES AS WAS ASKED.
WILL THE COMMITTEE IS LIKELY
FAMILIAR WITH HOME HE IT IS
IMPORTANT TO NOTE AS WELL THAT
NEARLY EVERYONE OF EACH YEAR THE
PORTAL HOUSING PROGRAMS ALSO
SEEKS TO ADDRESS THE NEED FOR
MORE HOMES TARGETING EITHER
EXTREMELY LOW INCOME. OR
HOMELESS HOUSEHOLDS. IN FACT
THESE PROJECTS THAT ARE THE MOST
COMPETITIVE FOR AWARDS ARE THOSE
THAT DO SO. BASED ON HOW WE
AWARD SCORING POINTS RISKY STATE
OBJECTIVES SO IS NOT ONLY HOLD
KEY NO PLACE LIKE HOME PROGRAM
THAT ARE CREATING MUCH NEEDED
HOUSING FOR CALIFORNIANS
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. BUT
NEARLY EVERY FEDERAL OR STATE
PROGRAM EACH DAY AND DISTRICTS.
SINCE TWENTY EIGHTEEN ALONE. THE
DEPARTMENT HELP CREATE HOMES
TARGETED TO SERVE TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUAL. AND.
HOMELESS FAMILIES EXPERIENCING
HOUSES. I WANT TO OFFER A FEW
EXAMPLES BEFORE TO IN THE ABOUT
HOW HE- 47% OF THE UNITS FROM
MARK CELERY TO PROGRAM. OR FOR
EXTREMELY LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLDS
AT THIRTY PERCENT. AT OR BELOW.
AREA MEDIAN INCOME AND MANY OF
THOSE. A SUBSET WE'RE REQUIRED
TO SERVE PUBLIC HOUSEHOLDS. JUST
FOR THE TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO
BUT YOU'RE ALONE. THE RESOURCES
DEPARTMENT DEPLOYS FOR THE
FEDERAL EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS
GRANTS PROGRAMS REHOUSED NEARLY
FOURTEEN THOUSAND HOUSEHOLDS.
AND PROVIDE EMERGENCY SHELTER
FOR AN ADDITIONAL FIFTY THOUSAND
PEOPLE. THE LAST ROUND OF OUR
HOUSING FOR HEALTHY CALIFORNIA
PROGRAM FUNDED THE CREATION OF
FIVE HUNDRED THIRTY TWO PERMITS
. HOUSING UNITS ACROSS SEVEN
COUNTIES. NO PLACE LIKE HOME
PROGRAM HAS CREATED NEARLY
SEVENTEEN THOUSAND HOPE HOUSING
IT'S- SIXTY THREE HUNDRED OF
WHICH ARE DEDICATED THOSE WERE
CHRONICALLY HOMELESS AND
DIAGNOSED. WITH MENTAL ILLNESS.
HOKEY IS ONE OF OUR MORE
EXCITING INTERVENTIONS BECAUSE
IT HAS HELPED FUNDING CREATE
NEARLY THIRTEEN THOUSAND NEW
PERMANENT AND INTERIM HOUSING
SOLUTIONS FOR CALIFORNIANS
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN MY
SHORT TIME FRAMES THAN
TRADITIONAL NEW CONSTRUCTION.
AWESOME TO DECEPTION IT'S
INCEPTION IN TWENTY TWENTY. OKAY
OF THE WORD OVER TWO POINT SEVEN
BILLION DOLLARS TO TWO HUNDRED
AND TEN PROJECTS. ACROSS FORTY
TWO COUNTIES S. SEVEN TRIBES.
OBJECTS ARE QUICKLY AND COST
EFFECTIVELY CREATING HOUSING
THAT WILL SERVE OVER SEVENTY
FIVE THOUSAND HOUSEHOLDS OVER
THE PROJECT LIFETIME. CASEY ALSO
CONTINUES UPON THE OPERATIONS OF
THESE PROJECTS AS WELL. REESING
FOR ROUND TWO NOW TO UP TO THREE
YEARS OF OPERATING SUPPORT
AVAILABLE COMPARED TO THE TWO
YEARS WE WERE PROVIDING IN THE
FIRST ROUND. SO OF THAT ONE
POINT NINE BILLION AWARDED IN
THIS SECOND ROUND. THE FUNDING
BREAKS DOWN TO ONE POINT SIX
SEVEN BILLION IN CAPITAL COSTS
AND TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY TWO
MILLION OPERATING COSTS THAT WE
HELP SUPPORT. AND WE'RE REALLY
PLEASED THEN THE SECOND ROUND OF
PUNKY 60% OF THESE ROUND TWO
AWARDEES CREATE PERMANENT
HOUSING. UP FROM 39% IN REPUBLIC
. SO IN ADDITION TO THE
INCREASINGLY OF THE OPERATIONS
AWARDS. WE ALSO OFFERED
INCREASED. OPERATING SUPPORT IF
THAT PROJECT WAS SERVING PERSONS
THAT WERE EXPERIENCING CHRONIC
HOMELESSNESS OR HOMELESS YOUTH.
SO AS WITH MENTIONED EARLIER
RIGHT THOSE ARE TWO OF THE
GROWTH POPULATIONS THAT IN MOST
NEED WE OFFERED MORE SUPPORT IF
PRODUCTS ARE WILLING TO DO THAT
. SOME HOME KEEP PERMANENT
HOUSING PROJECTS COMMIT FEDERAL
BE PROJECT BASED VOUCHERS- WHICH
DECREASE THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL
HD. OTHER PROJECTS CAN'T FIND OR
SECURE PROJECT BASED VOUCHERS
AND INSTEAD USE OTHER FEDERAL
STATE OR LOCAL SOURCES TO
PROVIDE SHORT TO MEDIUM TERM
FUNDING FOR PRODUCT OPERATIONS.
BUT I AM PLEASED TO SAY THE
COUPLED WITH EACH THE OPERATING
AWARDS PRODUCTS WITHOUT THAT
THAT PROJECT BASED VOUCHERS

TRAVEL DUFFELS. ABOUT ABOUT
SEVENTY FIVE MILLION. AND TAKEN
TOGETHER THOSE NOTICES THE
FUNDING AVAILABILITY WILL
EXHAUST THE HOKEY FUNDING.
APPROPRIATED BY THE LEGISLATURE
. WE ARE REALLY PLEASE A LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS CONTINUE TO BE
WILLING PARTNERS- THEY STEPPED
UP IN A BIG WAY FOR THE SECOND
ROUND AND- WE BELIEVE THEY'RE
READY FOR ROUND THREE. I WILL
ADD WE DO HAVE A PUBLIC
DASHBOARD FOR THE SECOND ROUND
OF HOME KEY- AND THAT DATA. ON
OUR WEBSITE HE REFLECTS THE
AWARDS EACH DAY IS MADE UP TO
THIS POINT- HOTELS MOTELS DO
CONTINUE TO BE A POSSIBLE
PROJECT TYPE BUT WE ARE SEEING
CONTINUED INTEREST IN MODULAR
HOUSING. ACQUISITION OF EXISTING
MULTI FAMILY DEVELOPMENTS I NEED
OTHER DOCTOR WHO USES WHILE. SO
I JUST WANNA SAY THIS IS IF NOT.
OF A COUNTRY TO ALMOST OF THE-
WE SEE OURSELVES AS A PART OF
THAT COORDINATED RESPONSE
RESEARCH. IS CONFIRMING THAT
HOMELESSNESS IS A HOUSING
PROBLEM. WITH THE HOUSING MARKET
CONDITIONS A LACK OF PORTABILITY
AND COST OF HOUSING DRIVING THAT
INCREASE IN HOMELESSNESS. WE
HOPE THAT OUR EMPHASIS ON
INCREASING PORTFOLIO PARKS
MIDDLE INCOME HOUSEHOLDS IS A
CRITICAL PIECE ONE OF MANY. HELP
ALLEVIATE THESE CONDITIONS THANK
YOU. THANK YOU MISTER MISTER- I
DEFINITELY OF SILK. FOR WHEN WE
AFTER WE HEAR FROM OUR- NEXT
PANEL. AND THAT IS DR MARK
COLLIE WHO IS OUR- SECRETARY OF
CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES AGENCY DR KELLY.
SENATORS AND- MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE THANK YOU FOR HAVING
ME JOIN YOU TODAY IT'S REALLY A
PLEASURE TO BE PART OF THIS
CONVERSATION- MAINLY BECAUSE ARE
YOU OPEN TO MEETING THIS IS. THE
ISSUE OF THE DAY FOR SO MANY
CALIFORNIANS AND AN IMPORTANT
ONE TO OUR AGENCY AND WE SEE IT
AS A PRIVILEGE. TO HAVE BEEN
ASKED TO CO CHAIR THE
INTERAGENCY COUNCIL WHERE- BCS
HM THE HONOR TO DO THAT WITH
SECRETARY CASTRO MAJORA'S. AND
DA DA CHICA AND OTHER MEMBERS OF
THAT TEAM WE HAVE SEVEN
DEPARTMENTS OF THE EIGHTEEN.
DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS OR
AGENCIES IN THE STATE FARM. ON
THE COMMITTEE WHO ARE HHS
DEPARTMENTS INCLUDING US AT THE
AGENCY SO WE CERTAINLY. HAVE OUR
WORK CUT OUT FOR US ON BEING
BOTH THE INNOVATOR IN THE
COLLABORATOR THAT WE KNOW WE CAN
BE TO HELP SOLVE THIS ISSUE. R.
I JUST WANNA. SAY THAT ONE OF
THE MOST IMPORTANT- GUIDING. FOR
THE WHOLE AND HUMAN AGENCY HAS
ARE TAKING. HEALTH AND HUMAN. WE
OFTEN SEE THEM AS SEPARATE
ISSUES- THERE THE FOR YOU HAVE
DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS THAT. HAVE
HISTORIC. KIND OF GONE THEIR OWN
WAYS I MANY ISSUES BUT I WOULD
LIKE TO THINK THAT. WE HAVE
TAKEN MANY STEPS TO INTEGRATE
THE APPROACHES. HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES PROBABLY SPEAK CAME AND
NO WISHING MORE THAN ALMOST AS-
FAR JUST BECAUSE I HAVE THEM TO
PUNCTUATE A FEW OF THE DETAILS
AND DATA POINTS. THAT
UNDERSCORES SOME OF THE
QUESTIONS THAT I KNOW HAVE BEEN
PASSED ON TO SAY THAT SENDS.
TWENTY EIGHTEEN TO TWENTY TWENTY
TWO WE'VE SEEN A SEVENTY SEVEN.
SAN INCREASE- CHRONICLED IS.
INTO THE QUESTION ABOUT NEXT
HOME IS NOW WITH MENTAL HEALTH.
AND OF WHO CAL OR ARE CONSIDERED
CHRONICALLY HOMELESS I'VE BEEN
HOMELESS FOR MANY MANY MONTHS
OFTEN OVER A YEAR. AND OFTEN
HAVE A- CHRONIC DISABLING
CONDITION TO GO ALONG WITH IT
AND OFTEN THOSE ARE BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH CONDITIONS SO WE'VE SEEN
THIS IS THE GROUP THAT. HAS NOT
JUST GROWN. TREMENDOUSLY IN THE
LAST YEAR OR TWO BUT REALLY A
77% INCREASE. CREE SENDS TWENTY
EIGHTEEN ARE AMONG IT JUST TO
PUNCTUATE ANOTHER POINT WE KNOW
THAT THIS IS A RACIAL EQUITY
ISSUE HOUSING EQUITY ISSUE IT IS
BOTH AN UPSTREAM AND THE
DOWNSTREAM HEALTH ISSUE. FROM
THE FACT THAT WE RAISED UP THIS
POINT THAT 7% OF CALIFORNIANS
ARE BLACK YEAH 30% OF
CALIFORNIANS EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS ARE BLACK. BAND TO.
SENATOR SMALL FOG PURPOSES
POINTED IT CAN ANSWER LOCALITIES
THANK YOU YOUR POINT US SENATOR
SKINNER AND STERN- WHETHER IT'S
THE BAY AREA- RELATE YOU SEE
THAT. MORE PUNCTURE. WHEN
FIREEYE. IN MY ROOM FROM FOUR
YEARS AGO. I WAS OFTEN ASKED.
WHY IS THIS SUCH A IMPORTANT
HEALTH HOMELESSNESS AND WHAT
WOULD WE BE ABOUT IT AND- I
THINK. MY IS THAT BECAUSE- THERE
IS FOR TO TEN GREATER MORTALITY
AMONG PEOPLE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS THIS IS NO DOUBT A
KEY HEALTH ISSUE NOT JUST A
DRIVER OF HEALTH BUT A KEY
HEALTH ISSUE THAT IT IS NEXT TO
IMPOSSIBLE. TO SUPPORT PEOPLE TO
IMPROVE FOR REGAIN THEIR HEALTH-
BANDERA BRIDGE ENCAMPMENTS WITH
THE COMPLEXITY OF THE CONDITIONS
INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS BOB FACE WHETHER
IT'S DIABETES AND THE NEED TO
REFRIGERATE MEDICATIONS FOR THE
TIME WE NEED TO TAKE CERTAIN
MEDICATIONS WHETHER THEY'RE HIV.
RECYCLE TROPIC MEDICATIONS THAT
CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. SO
WHEN I GO NEXT INTO THE EXACT
DETAILS OF TWO OF OUR
DEPARTMENTS- THAT HAVE BEEN
HIGHLIGHTED AS- IMPORTANT-
INNOVATORS AND IMPLEMENTERS IN.
HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS SPACE
IT IS NO DOUBT THAT WE SEE THIS
AS ONE OF OUR KEY. PROPERTIES
AND INITIATIVES THAT WE AREN'T
GOING TO SIT ON THE SIDELINES
THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO JUST
WALK BY AND WE'RE GOING TO
CONTINUE TO INNOVATE AND EXPLORE
NEW SOLUTIONS AND I'LL SHARE A
COUPLE OF THOSE WITH YOU NOW.
FILE CAN. THE DEPARTMENT OF
SOCIAL SERVICES OVER THE PAST
FEW YEARS BOB THROUGH THE
CREATION OF THE HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS DIVISION THIRD
SEVEN KEY PROGRAMS THAT THEY
THEY OPERATE AND RUN IT YOU SAW
FROM THE LA- THAT IT'S ABOUT TWO
POINT THREE BILLION DOLLARS IN.
SOCIAL SERVICES PROGRAMS. A LOT
OF IT IS LINK. THANK AN ACT TO.
OUR CAL WORKS. THE HOMELESS.
HOUSING SUPPORT PROBE. PROVIDES
THAT TEMPORARY AS AND STOPS. FOR
TO SIXTY FANS THAT BEEN HIM.
MANY OF THEM RECEIVE. VOUCHERS
FOR TEN HOUSING SUPPORT WITH
SOME RENTAL SUBSIDIES AND
HOPEFULLY THE PATH TOWARDS
PERMANENT- PERMANENT AND
SUPPORTED HOUSING WHEN NEEDED-
THE- FAMILY'S HOME. PROGRAM
WHICH FOR. ON IN THE TUB SYSTEM
ARE HOPING SUPPORT THOSE
FAMILIES AND IDENTIFYING HOUSING
SECURING THAT HOUSING SO THOSE
ARE OUR CHILDREN SHOULD BE
RETURNED TO THEIR FAMILIES.
SAFELY AND SECURELY. HOUSING
DISABILITY ADVOCACY PROGRAM.
WHICH IS- YEAH AN IMPORTANT
PROGRAM THAT HELPS US FOCUS ON.
THE CONNECTION TO PASS A SITE
AND- HAS JUST P. ENSURING THAT.
MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY
ELIGIBLE FOR THAT SUPPORT
RECEIVE- NAVIGATION IN SUPPORT
IN IDENTIFYING HOUSING WHEN IT
IS NEEDED AND THEN. THE HOME
SAFE PROGRAM WHICH HAS A DEEP
CONNECTION TO THE ADULT
PROTECTIVE SERVICES PROGRAM WITH
NEARLY SIX THOUSAND CALIFORNIANS
SERVED IN SUPPORTING THOSE
INDIVIDUALS IN ACHIEVING HOUSING
WE HEARD A LOT ABOUT PROJECT
FROM KEY. I JUST WANT TO COMMEND
SHE'S ON THE SHE'S ON THE ZOOM
AS WELL DIRECTOR KIM JOHNSON FOR
A REALLY GROUND BREAKING WORK-
ON ON HOPE BEING STAND THIS
PROGRAM. UP IN THE THROES OF
THE- IN THAT WE WORK WITH OUR
FEDERAL TO ACHIEVE THE SAME A
REIMBURSABLE IN SUB. OF FOR THE
PROGRAMS IN OVER ONE THOUSAND.
INDIVIDUALS WITH THOUGHT I
BELIEVE ABOUT 6280% EXITING ROOM
KEY OUR- UNITS AT A CERTAIN TIME
INTO WINTER MY HOUSING AND ON
TO. PERMANENT HOUSING AND THEN
THE LAST WAS HIGHLIGHTING. IS
THE C. PRO THE. COMMUNITY CARE
EXPERIENCE PROGRAM WHICH FOCUSES
ON BILL UP. BECAUSE TO ME TO BE
ANY FROM TO FOUR THOUSAND BEDS-
IN OUR- AND SHARE CAN OVER. THE
STATE AS YOU NO SOCIAL SERVICES
LICENSES THESE FACILITIES AND
SUPPORTS THEM ALONG THE WAY SO
THE ABILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT IT
BOB FACILITIES THAT ARE FRANKLY
SPEAKING DILAPIDATED. AGE AND
FALL IN DOWN IN SOME PLACES HAVE
SOME CAPITAL RESOURCES TO BUILD
BACK UP AND THEN ALSO BUILDING
MANY MORE A NEW. SHIPPING
QUICKLY TO. PROGRAMS THE OF
HEALTH CARE SERVICES. I THINK
THIS IS A SPACE WHERE CALIFORNIA
HAS. REALLY LED THE WAY- THE
INNOVATION AND THE WORK AMONG
THE DIRECTORS AND- ERECTOR
MEDICAID DIRECTOR J. C. COOPER
WHO'S ALSO ON THE LINE- PROMOTE
WHAT I THINK OUR GROUND BREAKING
INNOVATIONS WITHIN THE CATALAN
CONSTRUCT NOT JUST THE- WAIVER
ITSELF IN SOME OF THE PROGRAMS
THAT I KNOW- SENATORS SKINNER I
BELIEVE YOU WILL BE HAVING
ANOTHER OVERSIGHT HEARING IN
CONVERSATION ABOUT TELLING
SPECIFICALLY. BUT AS IT RELATES
TO HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS-
CALIFORNIA IS PUSHING THE
ENVELOPE AS FAR IF NOT FURTHER
THAN ANY OTHER STATE. AS IT
RELATES TO THE NEXUS BETWEEN
MEDICAID WHICH I SEE IS ONE OF
OUR KEY EQUITY LOVERS ARE IN ALL
OF OUR STATE AND ALL OF OUR
NATION TO REALLY ADVANCE THE
HEALTH. AND ADDRESS THOSE SOCIAL
DRIVERS OF HEALTH LIKE HOUSING-
AND WITHIN. THE VARIOUS ASPECTS
OF WHAT CHALLENGES ACHIEVING- OR
WORKING TO ACHIEVE THE COMMUNITY
SUPPORTS A PROSPECT- AS MANY OF
YOU KNOW FOURTEEN COMMUNITY
SUPPORTS BOB ROUGHLY SIX OR
SEVEN OF THEM HAVE A REAL DEEP
AND ACCESS TO HOUSING AND
HOMELESSNESS. FOR EXAMPLE THE
HOUSING TRANSITION NAVIGATION.
PROGRAM A BILITY PROVIDE YOU MAY
CARE PLAN. HOUSING TO POP TO
HELP SICK THOSE HOUSING EARLY.
OFTEN THAT. WOULD STAY IN THE
WAY. OF A MEDICAID BENEFICIARY.
IN HOUSING AND BEING ABLE TO
SECURE A HOUSING TENANCY IN
SUPPORT SERVICES- THIS IS
SOMETHING I'D LEARNED ALL TOO
WELL IN MY DAYS WORKING ON
HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS IN LOS
ANGELES. IF WE JUST PROVIDED THE
SUPPORTS AND SERVICES. ARE
EXTRACTING AND THE TELEPHONE
NUMBER TO CALL. A MEDICAID
BENEFICIARY WITH. COMPLEX
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH NEEDS CAN
SUCCESSFULLY BE HOUSED AND
SUPPORTED IN THAT HOUSING.
LANDLORDS LIFELINE TO SOMEBODY
OTHER THAN THE TENDER TO SUPPORT
OUR TENDENCY IT IS REALLY
IMPORTANT. THE ABILITY TO FUND
RECUPERATIVE CARE PROGRAMS
ACROSS THE STATE- THAT BECOME
THAT ARE CLINICALLY ENRICHED
HOUSING LOCATION BUT INDIVIDUALS
WHO MIGHT OTHERWISE BE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AFTER
A- DISCHARGE FROM A HOSPITAL OR
OTHER CLINICAL SETTING- THE
ABILITY TO EXPAND REPORT OF CARE
ACROSS THE STATE I THINK IS
ANOTHER IMPORTANT ACHIEVEMENT.
SHORT TERM POST HOSPITALIZATION
HOUSING SIMILAR TO REPORT OF
CARE PROVIDES UP TO SIX MONTHS
OF SUPPORT FOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS
WHO NEED THAT CLINICALLY- IN
RICH HOUSING PROGRAM AS WELL AS
WELL AS THE ABILITY TATIAN
PROGRAMS THERE ARE UP ALSO
SUPPORT- THE ACTIVITIES AND THE
- THE OVERALL SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AS YOU
KNOW. THESE ARE PROGRAMS THAT
ARE RUN THROUGH OUR MANAGED CARE
PLANS ACROSS THE STATE THEY ARE
OPTIONAL PROGRAMS FOR THOSE
MANAGED. CARE PLANS TO IMPLEMENT
WE ARE WORKING HARD WITH MANAGED
CARE PLANS ACROSS THE STATE TO
MAKE SURE THAT MANY OF THEM TAKE
. ALL OF THE OPPORTUNITY AND
WOMEN ALL OF THESE. AND TO MAKE
THAT THEY WIDE UP- CAL ANYMORE
IT WAS SEE IT WITH CAROL.
SOMETHING THAT WAS AND- THE WEEK
BEFORE IN EIGHT NORMA'S FOR
STATE ARE GETTING THE CREW FROM
- THE FEDERAL FOR WHAT WE ARE-
AFFECTION CALL OR- AN ISSUE HAVE
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S GOING
TO ALLOW US. INTO ARE THERE CAN
PRISONS OR JAILS WORDS THE FOR
ACROSS THE- FOR BETTER. ARE L.
A. FOR. TO RECEIVE AN A RATING
CHEN CLINICAL SERVICES IN
SPECIFIC AREAS NINETY DAYS
BEFORE THEY'RE RELEASED I'LL
REMIND YOU BAD HISTORICALLY
BECAUSE OF THE MATTER IS THAT HE
MADE EXCLUSION. WHEN YOU ARE
ARRESTED AND PUT IN JAILS ARE
JUVENILE DETENTION FACILITIES
YOUR BENEFITS ARE SUSPENDED AND
EVEN TERMINATED IN SOME CASES
CALIFORNIANS ARE WORKING WITH
OUR FEDERAL PARTNERS SAID BUT IT
DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE THIS IS
THE TIME WHEN INDIVIDUALS NEED.
SOME OF THESE SERVICES THE MOST
WE KNOW THAT CERTAIN JAILS AND
EVEN PERSONS DISTURBED
INDIVIDUALS NOT JUST WITHOUT
THEIR MEDICATIONS WITHOUT THEIR
FOLLOW UP APPOINTMENTS BUT
WITHOUT A PLACE TO GO. INTO
HOMELESSNESS I KNOW THIS ALL TOO
WELL FROM MY EXPERIENCES IN LOS
ANGELES AND THIS IS A GREAT
OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE OF THIS OUR-
NEW INITIATIVE THAT STARTING IN
TWENTY FOUR TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
AND ROLLING OUT HOPEFULLY. TO
PULL EXPANSION IN TWENTY TWENTY
SIX NOT AN OPTIONAL SERVICE BUT
BECAUSE OF THE BABY ONE THIRTY
THREE REQUIRED THIS IS STATE
WIDE THAT WE SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS
WITH THEIR CLINICAL NEEDS BUT
ALSO BUT IT'S WARM HANDOFFS TO
SERVICES AND SUPPORTS LIKE
HOUSING AFTER THEY'RE RELEASED.
AND THEN OF COURSE THAT ALL
BACKS INTO A WHOLE SET. OF
IMPORTANT SERVICES THAT ARE-
ENVISIONED THROUGH CALENDAR-
THAT GO BEYOND THAT JUST FINISH
ON TOP OF THAT THE DEPARTMENT IS
WORKING. ON WHAT WE- THE CAL OF
BEACH. HEALTH COMMUNITY BASED

MACBOOK FOLLOWED COMMENTS.
SENATOR LAYERED YOU HAS ABOUT

MINISTRATION OF THE DATA IN THAT
WAY I WOULD SAY THE- EVENING IS
. LOWERED UP IT COUNTS ARE WE

ADVANCED THROUGH THE HELPING
HUMANS TO SUPPORT BUILDING UP
INTO. AND THOSE RELEASE. ARE ARE
ARE A BIT SO I EVERY LOW
OFFICIALS SPECIAL CITY
ADMINISTRATOR AND MAYORS. THAT
THEY SHOULD GO AND SAY UP AN UP
. WITH THEIR LOCAL PLAN CEO TO
TALK ABOUT WHERE ARE THE
OPPORTUNITIES TO ADDRESS THE
LOCAL HOMELESSNESS CONDITIONS
AND ISSUES THINGS LIKE CANCER
CARE MANAGEMENT WHICH IS A STATE
WIDE BENEFIT UNDER CAL AIM OR
ANY OF THE NUMBER OF COMMUNITY
SUPPORTS. I KNOW THAT PUSHING
THE HEALTH PLANS BY LOCAL
ELECTED OFFICIALS IS GOING TO
MAKE THESE PROGRAMS MORE LIKELY
TO SCALE FASTER BE HIGHER
QUALITY AND ADDRESS THOSE LOCAL
CONDITIONS NO MATTER WHAT THE
PIC COUNTY AS- WE KNOW THAT
EVERY COUNTY. HAS A SLIGHTLY
DIFFERENT AND COMPLICATED STORY
ON HOW THEY'RE GOING TO ADDRESS
HOMELESSNESS AND WE WANT TO BE
BY EVERY COUNTY SIDE IN DOING
THAT SENATOR ROB YOUR RAGE THE-
METER- RAISED. A NUMBER OF
ISSUES BUT THE MENTAL HEALTH AND
HOMELESSNESS NEXUS I DISCUSSED
HOW WE SEE. ONE OF THE FASTEST
GROWING GROUPS. ARE AMONG THE
MOST TALENTED WITH THE BALL IN
TIME COMES OR THOSE PEOPLE
EXPERIENCING CHRONIC
HOMELESSNESS NO DOUBT THAT THIS.
IS A STRONGER CONNECTION TO
ISSUES OF SUBSTANCE USE
DISORDERS. AND MENTAL ILLNESS.
WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE TOP. UNDER
THE I TO BIRDS- BOB THE
INCREASED REFERRAL INTO LOOKS.
DISORDER AND TO. THE SYSTEMS
THEY CAN. SOME AND CARE FOR THE-
INCLUDING MARION. WITH TREATMENT
AND SOME. IN THIS SORT OF THREE
LEGGED STOOL WILL IS A- PIECE OF
WHAT I HOPE YOU AND WE WILL
CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON DOING ONE
OF THOSE LACKS WITHOUT THE
OTHERS IT IS- USUALLY- OF.
ACTIVE AND WE SEE DO GET THE
KIND OF IMPACT SO AS YOU. ABOUT
ACCOUNT OF. AND I WAS SAY WE
ALSO ARE LOOKING FOR OUR OWN
WAYS TO BE MORE ACCOUNTABLE TO
YOU AND TO THE PUBLIC
INCREASING. TRANSPARENCY WITH
DATA AND DASHBOARDS SERVING OUR
OWN METRICS SO THE BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH. CARE INFRASTRUCTURE
PROGRAM PATCH- THE DEPARTMENT OF
HEALTH CARE SERVICES WE KNOW
THAT ROUGHLY SPEAKING WE ARE
GOING TO GET ABOUT TWO HUNDRED
THOUSAND NEW TREATMENT SLOTS.
FOR THAT FIRST BILLION DOLLARS
THAT HAS BEEN PUT ON THE ARE
INDEED COMMUNITIES ARE READY THE
NEXT BILLION DOLLARS WE HOPE TO
SEE THE SAME LEVEL OF
OPPORTUNITY SO WHEN YOU ASK
QUESTIONS WHAT WHAT'S THE DATA
WHAT'S THE PROOF WHAT ARE WE
TRACKING TOWARDS WE CAN GIVE YOU
FOR BOTH THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH.
INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAM OUR
COMMUNITY CARE EXPANSION
PROGRAM- SOME. SOME ROUGH GOALS
AND METRICS THAT WE HOPE WE WILL
BE TRANSPARENT IN TRACKING AND
YOU CAN. HOLD US ACCOUNTABLE TO-
SENATOR BEN THANK YOU THE
QUESTION AROUND EFFECTIVE OF
THESE PROGRAMS AS WELL DO WE
HAVE- THE DATA DO WE HAVE GOALS
WE HAVE SOME OF THAT WE CAN
SHARE THAT WITH YOU. ARE THERE
IN Q. AND A HERE IN A BID FOR-
CERTAINLY- AFTER THIS HEARING.
SENATOR YOU RAISED BECAUSE OF
ECONOMIC. DAN HI CAN PROUDLY SAY
AND I KNOW DIRECTOR JOHNSON WILL
HAVE MORE TO SAY ON THIS BAD THE
PROGRAMS THAT THE DSS HAS
FOCUSED ON WHETHER KIDS ARE
UNDER THE GUISE OF SUPPORTING
FAMILIES AND CAL WORKS. OR ARE
BRINGING FAMILY'S HOME OR WITH
OUR FOCUS ON OLDER OTHER
VULNERABLE CALIFORNIANS AS IT
RELATES TO ADULT PROTECTIVE
SERVICES WE SEE THE CAL WORKS
PROGRAM CALFRESH THAT SOCIETY I
THE SPEED AND SKI OUR PROGRAMS
TO SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS TO.
SIMPLY MAKE ENDS MEET TO BOBBY
ABLE TO AFFORD THAT INCREASING
RIGHT AS THE L. A. O. HAS SAID
AND TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE
ADDITIONAL SUPPORT. FOR
INDIVIDUALS IN THOSE PROGRAMS IN
THOSE MOMENTS OF NEED AND I
THINK THE STRUCTURE OF SOME OF
THESE PROGRAMS IS ALLOWING US TO
DO THAT COULD WE BE EVEN MORE
CREATIVE AND MORE FLEXIBLE
ABSOLUTELY. AND I CERTAINLY PUSH
OUR TEAMS TO DO THAT MORE AND
MORE- SENATORS SMALL WITH BERMAN
SMALLWOOD CUEVAS I THINK YOUR
POINT. IS ONE THAT IS HE SAID
THIS IS OUR- MAIN ISSUE NOT JUST
BROADLY OF RACIAL EQUITY BY. IT
IS AN ISSUE THAT PREDOMINANTLY
AND DISPROPORTIONATELY IMPACTS
BLACK CALIFORNIANS I REMEMBER
WHEN WE FIRST ARE PUT TOGETHER
AND- OTHERS ON THIS PANEL WILL
REMEMBER THE SAME- A- WORKING
GROUP OR TASK FORCE TO LOOK AT
BLACK PEOPLE EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS IN LOS ANGELES.
SOME SEVEN TO EIGHT YEARS AGO
THE FINDINGS OF THOSE INITIAL
REPORTS STILL STAND TODAY WE
MADE THE KIND OF PROGRESS WE
NEED TO WE ARE IN OUR PROGRAMS
PUTTING IN SOME. OF METRICS AND
MEASURES AND INCENTIVES EVEN FOR
CLOSING THE RACIAL DISPARITIES
AROUND ACCESS TO CALLIN PROGRAM
. SO J. C. COOPER AGAINST THIS
IS A LITTLE BIT. BUT WE WERE
DELIVERY IN- IDENTIFY THE NEED.
OF SOME. POPULAR POP. IN
PARTICULAR COLOR. EVEN THOUGH
MAY COME JUST UNDER SO PERCENT
OF THE MEDIC POP. WE KNOW THE
DISPROPORTIONATE AND EXPERIENCE
HOMELESSNESS AND I WILL ALSO
SAY. WE HAVE SOME NEW
OPPORTUNITIES TO ADDRESS THESE
RACIAL DISPARITIES AN HHS IS NOT
IN A POSITION AS MUCH TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THE LONG STANDING
SYSTEMIC ISSUES AROUND HOUSING
DISCRIMINATION ALTHOUGH WE WANT
TO FIGURE OUT IF YOU SEE A ROLE
FOR US IN THAT SPACE. WE ARE
EXCITED TO JUMP IN BUT CERTAINLY
IN WORKING ON ISSUES LIKE
GETTING THE WORK FORCE. TO LOOK.
INTO UNDERSTAND THE COMMUNITIES
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS OUR
NEW COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER
BENEFIT WHICH WE SEE AS A SPRAWD
TOOL TO HELP US DO BETTER
SMARTER MORE ARE COMPLETE OUR
REGION AND GAVE. UP WITH ARE
HOMELESS SERVICE PROVIDERS
ACROSS THE STATE AND PROVIDING
DOLLARS. THROUGH OUR HOUSE
PROGRAM WHICH J. AC CAN ALSO
SPEAK ABOUT HELP SUPPORT- MORE
GRASS ROOTS COMMUNITY BASED.
HOMELESS SERVICE PROVIDERS TO DO
BENEFIT FROM SOME OF THESE
RESOURCES AND DOLLARS OFTEN
THROUGH FLOW THROUGH BUT IF
HISTORICALLY BEEN CONFUSING
MEDICAID PROGRAMS- ALSO A WRAP
UP BY SAYING. US JOHN ARE REALLY
IMPRESSED THE OF A THIRTY. FOOT
VIEW AND THAT CAN ONLY SINCE.
ARE ABOUT THE ONES NATURE OF
FUNDING AND I WOULD SAY I THINK
BY CALLING ON THE WOULD AGREE.
SURE THERE ARE SO DOLLAR DESPITE
SOME THE CAP FUNDING THERE ARE
ONE TIME IN NATURE BUT THE
PROGRAM MOTHER THERE IN THE
DEPARTMENT OF SO SERVICES OR THE
- OF CARE IS. FOR A NUMBER OF
OTHER DEPARTMENTS IN OUR AGENCY
LIKE STATE HOSPITALS FOR
DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES FOR THE
DEPARTMENT OF AGING THERE ARE
ONGOING RESOURCES THAT ARE
PROVIDED AND AS MUCH AS MEDICAID
IS ACTUAL I URGE LOCAL. LEADERS
TO COME TOGETHER WITH THEIR
MEDICAID PLANS TO SEE WHAT THE
OPPORTUNITIES ARE BECAUSE AS
MUCH AS THERE ARE BENEFITS UNDER
MEDICAID YOU CAN BE LASTING OUR
RESOURCES HAVE A LASTING IMPACT
NOT JUST ON THE INDIVIDUALS BUT
THE COMMUNITIES OF LA ARCH SO
FAR. HELLO HELLO WE WILL ALWAYS
HAVE THE CONVERSATION ABOUT ONE
TIME PERSONS ARE GOING FUNDING
IN SOME AREAS I THINK IN SOME OF
THE AREAS THAT I PRESENTED.
ARAFAT THERE ARE REAL
OPPORTUNITIES TO SEE THEM AS
LONG TERM FUNDING SOURCES TELL
US SUPPORT SUCH AS THE
CREATIVITY AND THE OTHER THING
CAME BUT HOPEFULLY. AND I'LL
EXPLAIN WITH THIS LAST STATEMENT
- THE WHOLE IN THIS ISSUE I DID
TALK I BELIEVE. THAT IF OUR UP
OUR LIFE. ON IT WE COULD. FAIRLY
FASHION FIGURE OUT WAYS FOR OUR
OUR BOB OWN SHOW. CAL ARE AND-
LIVING IN NEXT. A HONORS TO OF
AND- WE HAVE THE INNOVATORS WE
HAVE THE HOBBIT. OF OUR GEN
UNITY IN COLLAB. WE HAVE BILL
BRIDGES BETWEEN LOCAL AND STATE
OPPORTUNE. AND I LIKE TO THINK
AND BELIEVE THAT THROUGH THE
LEADERSHIP OF THIS COMMITTEE BOB
THE ENTIRE LET. WITH THE ADVENT
OF. AND THE GOVERNOR SO WE CAN
BILL THOSE PER AND SEEING OUR
SICK. IMPROVE IN OUR ACCOUNT AND
MORE THAN YEAH THE OUTLINES AND
LOW TRAJO OF PEOPLE LOOKS
HOMELESSNESS AS I OPENED IT'S A
PRIVILEGE TO BE HERE I KNOW I
DIDN'T ANSWER ALL OF THE
QUESTIONS. IS PROBABLY MANY MORE
THAT ARE EITHER I OR TEAM WILL
ANSWER- BUT WITHOUT I'LL TURN IT
BACK TO YOU SENATORS SKINNER AND
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US THANK
YOU DR GOING OUT FOR GOLLY I'M
GONNA ASK- FOLKS I HAVE A LIST
BUT I'M ASK YOU TO PLEASE. FOR
THE ONCE I'M IN A CALL AND YOUR
DIRECTOR QUESTIONS DR GOLLY AND

THAT WAS THE HEALTH OMNIBUS
TRAILER BILL FOR TWENTY ONE
TWENTY TWO SO YOU CAN FIND MUCH
OF WHAT HE'S DESCRIBING. IN
DEPTH BILL AN ADDITIONALLY WE
ARE HAVING AN OVERSIGHT HEARING
ON CAL AIMS A GOOD AMOUNT OF
WHAT HE'S TALKED ABOUT HIS- NOT
ALL OF COURSE. IS WAYS THAT WE
HAVE THAT HE IS PROPOSING WE
ADOPTED TO EXPAND OUR ABILITY TO
USE MEDICARE OFFER SUCH SERVICES
AS FOR EXAMPLE EMERGENCY RENTAL
ASSISTANCE FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD
OF TIME. FOR FOOD FOR SOME
THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT LET ME GO
TO SENATOR ROTH. AND I HAVE
SENATOR EGGMAN AND CENTER
LAYERED AND AGAIN FOR RIGHT NOW
QUESTIONS TO DR GOLLY. THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIR I MAKE A QUICK. DOT
KELLY I WANT TO THANK YOU IN THE
ADMINISTRATION FOR BEGINNING TO
PIVOT OUR- HOUSING AND MENTAL
HEALTH FUNDING. TO DEAL WITH THE
INCREASE IN THE PERCENTAGE OF
HOMELESS. WITH A SERIOUS MENTAL
HEALTH ISSUES THAT WE NOW FIND
ON OUR STREETS. THE SECOND IS A
COMMENT HOPEFULLY FOR DISCUSSION
WITH YOU LATER. AND THAT'S THIS
I HOPE YOU. IN THE
ADMINISTRATION WILL CONSIDER
EXPANDING OUR- THE CUTE.
TREATMENT COULD. WITHIN THIS. TO
DEAL WITH THOSE WHO ARE ON THE
STREET WITH HERE IS FROM. IS WHO
ARE NOT QUITE READY. FOR
RESIDENTIAL AND QUÉ FOR
COMMUNITY TREATMENT FACILITIES
PERHAPS YOU AND I CAN HAVE THAT
CONVERSATION LATER THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIR. THANK YOU. AND I
LOOK FORWARD TO THAT
CONVERSATION WITH YOU SOON.
GREAT CENTER EGGMAN THANK YOU
VERY MUCH- AND THANK YOU DR
KELLY FOR YOUR REMARKS AND YOUR
PRESENTATION. I DON'T WANT TO
GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF VOICE TO
BOTH OUR FRUSTRATION AND A LEVEL
VOICE TO OUR- OUR HOPE. I THINK
IT IS HARD TO DO OVERSIGHT ON
SOMETHING IS SO MASSIVE AND HAS
SO MANY TENTACLES YOU FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE AT A BIG MASSIVE LAKE
WITH ALL THESE LITTLE. INLETS
GOING OUT AND WE FEEL A HUGE
SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY TO HELP
PEOPLE AND TO DO SOMETHING
EFFECTIVE WITHOUT FUNDS. BUT IT
I THINK BECAUSE THE NATURE IT IS
IT IS SO BIG IT IS VERY HARD FOR
US ALL TO GET OUR ARMS AROUND IT
AND FEEL LIKE. WE WERE ABLE TO.
PROPERLY DELIVER THE OVERSIGHT
THAT DEADLINE THAT I KNOW WE
WANT TO. LIKE TO MAKE THE
COMMENT THAT THE MASSIVE AMOUNT
OF MONEY THAT WE HAVE PUT OUT
AND I THINK TO. TO SUNDER
DELHI'S POINT- FEELS FRUSTRATING
BECAUSE OFTENTIMES THE CITY AND
COUNTY EXPERIENCE IS
DISCONNECTED AND FROM THE STATE
AND THEN YOU KNOW AND THE PEOPLE
FALL. DOWN ON THE BOTTOM
SOMEWHERE ELSE. BUT I DO BELIEVE
GOING FORWARD THAT WE DO HAVE A
RENEWED AMOUNT OF HOPE AND CAL
AIM. BUT I THINK THE OVERSIGHT
AND THE COORDINATION BETWEEN THE
COUNTIES AND THE PLANS AND THE-
TENANT AND THE- PEOPLE WHO ARE
DOING THAT PROVISION OF CARE. IS
GONNA BE REALLY KEY. I THINK
THAT'S WHERE THE RIVER IS GOING
TO HIT THE ROAD IS THE ACTUAL
PROVIDING OF THAT ONGOING
FUNDING. TO THAT POINT- AND ALSO
I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE-
CONTINUE OF CARE INNOVATION
GRANT AGAIN MORE ON GOING
FUNDING AS WELL AS- THE JUSTICE
INFORMED- THE NEW FUNDING COMING
INTO THAT'S ALL GOING TO BE
THAT. OVER OVER TIME FUNDING
THAT'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO
COME. THIS HOPEFULLY GONNA
UNLOCK A LOT OF. THE POWER OF
WHAT WE'VE ALREADY DONE THROUGH
INFRASTRUCTURE. I THINK MORE
NEEDS TO BE DONE. BUT AS WE
CONTINUE TO GO FORWARD I THINK
IT'S WE CAN'T I CAN'T. I DON'T
THINK WE CAN OVERSTRESS ENOUGH
NOW LIBERAL COORDINATION NEEDS
TO HAPPEN. AT THE COUNTY THE
CITY AND THE STATE INTEGRATION
ABOUT UNLOCKING THOSE FUNDS AND
MAKING SURE THEY'RE USED TO THE-
BEST OF THEIR ABILITY. AND AGAIN
THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND YOU ALSO
HAVE THE SAME HOPE- GOING
FORWARD THAT WE'RE GOING TO
ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO PUT PEOPLE.
IN THOSE BEDS- AND MAKE SURE
THAT THEY'RE ABLE TO MOVE DOWN
TO THE LEAST. THE LEAST
RESTRICTIVE- LEVEL OF CARE IN
THE MOST EXPEDIENT MANNER-
DOCTOROW- GOING. I JUST WANT TO
SAY- SENATE I WILL WELL WHY SAID
. AMEN TOLD YOU SAID IN A- OF
FAILED TO. PROBABLY OF THE MOST
SICK. ON GOING TO. OPPORTUNE
WHICH CAN THE MAIL. CARE
PROCUREMENT. ARE DEAD BUT WAS
JUST COMPLETED AND THAT IS OUR
THIS YEAR. COMING TOGETHER. IN
THOSE NEW ENVISIONED TWENTY
TWENTY FOUR. CONTRACTS WITH
MANAGED CARE PLANS YOU SHOULD
YOU JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE
EXPECTATION- ON PLANTS. THE
SUPPORT WE HAVE TO GIVE THEM TO
MEET THOSE EXPECTATIONS IS WHAT
I THINK. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SO
THE REQUIREMENT TO WORK WITH NOT
JUST YOUR COUNTY HEALTH FOLKS BY
YOUR COUNTY SOCIAL SERVICES
SPOKE TO COUNTY CHILD WELFARE
FOLKS YOU'RE COUNTY. BOB
PROBATION AND SHARE OF. TONY
DOES CO. AND OTHER HOME SERVICES
PROVIDERS. LANES ARE ON THE HOOK
FOR DOING MORE TO REACH. AND
WELCOME IN TO THEM. TEND TO FALL
OF GROUPS SO YOUR POINT SO
EGGMAN FOR CREATING THE AVENUE
TO DO THAT NOW WE JUST TO BE.
MAKING SURE THAT HAVE THE TIME
AND RESOURCE TO ME THE MOST OF
THOSE CONNECTIONS AND OFFER. ALL
RIGHT SO I HAVE SENATOR LAYERED
SENATOR LOW AND I WILL. OPEN UP
THE FLOOR FOR QUESTIONS THE
OTHER PANELISTS IN THE DISH TO A
DOCK COLLEAGUES HEAD TO EARLIER
THANK YOU. A MIKE WAS FOR ALL
THE FAMILY BUT I TO MAYBE. I WAS
IT TO DOCTOR GO BEFORE YOU GO
SPEAK. I THINK THERE AND SENATOR
EGGMAN WILL CHANNEL MY SUB. FOR
ONE SHE TALKED TO- AT ASSEMBLY
MEMBER STONE AND I GOT MONEY IN
. THE YEAR BEFORE LAST BECAUSE
WHEN I WOULD COME HERE AND MORE
I WOULD DRIVE BY CAMPGROUND IS
ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED PEOPLE AT THE
INTERSECTION OF. TWO FREEWAYS
AND WAS IN THE CITY AND THE CITY
WAS EXPECTED TO RESPOND. AND
VERY VERY POOR ELIGIBLE FOR
THESE PROGRAMS AND THERE WAS
NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND THEY
WORK IN THE FRONT LINE AND- THE
COUNTY WAS NOT AT THE TIME
NECESSARILY HELPING THEM AND-
THEY JUST. DISMANTLED A
CAMPGROUND IN ADVANCE OF THE
FLOOD BY OFFERING US EVERY
SINGLE PERSON A PLACE TO SLEEP.
BUT ONLY ABOUT 40% TOOK IT BUT
IT IS THE FIRST TIME THERE WAS
NOT A LEGAL CHALLENGE ON THE
CAMPGROUND AND THEY INITIATED
ALL THIS BEFORE THERE WAS A
CAMPGROUND PROGRAMS. AND
CAMPGROUND MONEY AND THEN THE
MONEY RUNS OUT. FOR THE SHELTER
THAT THEY HAVE IN THE LATE
SUMMER. AND THERE'S NOT ONGOING
. AND SO THEN WHEN I MET WITH
THE COUNTY. THE COUNTY SAID. THE
REAL PROBLEM THERE IS THERE'S NO
COUNTY BUILDING WE'RE NOT IN
CHARGE AND WE'RE NOT. IN A ROLE
THAT WE CAN GO I DIDN'T DIRECT
THIS AND I WAS FLOORED TO FIND
OUT THAT. THIS IS THE FRONT AND
CENTER MAJOR. ISSUE IN OUR LOCAL
AREA AND NOBODY FELT LIKE THEY
WERE IN CHARGE OF IT IN ANY WAY.
AND IT WAS ONLY IN A FUSION OF
STATE MONEY. THAT ALLOWED THE
MOST PUBLIC THING TO BE DEALT
WITH. AND SO I HAVE TO SAY THAT
WERE YOU. AND DOCTOR GO YOU WERE
REALLY FOCUSED ON. ON THE
MEDICAL SIDE OF THE EQUATION.
BOUGHT IT IF I WENT BACK AND
SAID WE HAD A HEARING IT WAS
LIKE CALL UP SOMEBODY AND MAKE
AN APPOINTMENT. I WOULD HAVE
PROBABLY HAVE THE DESK THROWN AT
ME. BECAUSE. I DON'T FEEL LIKE.
ARM THIRTY LIKE IT'S COOL. OR
COMING IN A WAY THAT. THAT IS
YOU USER FOR. OR THAT. IT IS A
YOUR BECAUSE WHAT I WANT TO
EVERY. HOME ONCE SERVICE OUT
WHAT PROGRAM IN MY DISTRICT OVER
THE FALL. SUPERVISE PARKING
COMPREHENSIVE CENTERS VETERANS.
WOMEN'S PLACES THAT IT'S
STARTING. IT IN DIFFERENT PLACES
ARE BUYING THEM A MOTEL SIX
BUILDING TINY HOMES A LOT OF-
DID IT WITHOUT THE NEW. THAT
THERE WERE TO GET STAY MONEY IN
THE PROCESS. THEY WERE JUST
MOVING AHEAD AND DOING IT WHICH
IS WHAT MADE IT HARD. TO HEAR
THAT THEY WEREN'T DOING THEIR
PART. AND THERE WAS NOT
ACCOUNTABILITY SO. THE THIS IS
AN OVERSIGHT HEARING AND WHEN WE
LOOKED AT. THE DOCUMENT PROVIDED
BY THE L. A. O. THERE WAS. MAYBE
IT'S THERE SOMEWHERE BUT I DID
NOT SEE THE WORD ACCOUNTABILITY.
AND I DID NOT SEE THE STATISTICS
OF WHAT'S BEING ONCE RESULTING
FROM EACH OF THE LINE ITEM STEP
WE WERE PRESENTED IN GREAT
DETAIL. AND SO THE ARM TO GO
BACK HOME THEY'RE GOING TO WANT
TO KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE
ACTUALLY GETTING SURVIVES US
TONIGHT HER DOCTOR GALLERY FOR
TO A DASHBOARD. A IS IT
SUCCESSFUL OR THEIR NUMBERS TO
REALLY PROVING IT IN A WAY THAT
WE CAN GUIDE WHATEVER THE
SERVICE. THE BUDGET INVESTMENT
IS AND SO. I THINK THE THING WAS
THIS WHEN I READ THIS
THOUGHTFULLY FROM THE L. A. O.
WAS JUST A LONG LIST OF THINGS
AND IT DIDN'T HAVE WHAT IT WAS
PROVIDING. AND IT WAS UNCLEAR
WHERE THE ACCOUNT TO BE WISE AND
THE COORDINATION BETWEEN ALL THE
PROGRAMS AND- I KNOW THAT SOME
RANDOM. SENATE DR GO YOU HAVE TO
LEAVE BEHIND THERE WAS A BIG
MENU OF THINGS TO TALK ABOUT
BUT- THAT'S SORT OF WHAT I WAS
TRYING TO CHANNEL INTO THIS
HEARING BECAUSE I WANT TO GO
BACK AND TELL PEOPLE OKAY THESE
ARE THE WAYS TO USE THE SYSTEM.
THIS IS WHAT IT'S PROVIDED AND
IF WE GO INTO BUDGET HEARINGS
THIS YEAR. WE KNOW WHAT'S BEEN
SUCCESSFUL WITH THE NUMBERS AND
WHAT MIGHT NOT. BE ABLE TO GUIDE
WHAT THE INVESTMENT IS SO I WAS
HOPING EVERYBODY WOULD BUT
DOCTORS OUR YOU'RE LEAVING AND
SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WISH. TO
JUST LET CERVANTES YEAH LET'S
SEE IF YOU CAN BUT MEANWHILE-
FIVE. MINUTES LATER WHEN WE ASK
EVERYONE QUESTIONS- MR OLMSTEAD
FOR EXAMPLE GAVE SOME NUMBERS
BUT WE DON'T HAVE THEM BEFORE SO
IT IS A PERFECTLY APPROPRIATE
FOR US TO ASK FOR THAT DETAIL
BUT GO AHEAD DOCTOR GOLLY. YEAH
THE BECAUSE OF TIME AND SENATOR
LEAHY. ALWAYS HAPPY TO. WITH YOU
TALK TO THIS MY SPECIFICALLY. I
THINK THAT THE QUICK CARE. IS
YOU KNOW WE- BEEN NIGHT AND I IF
YOU. TAKE NOTICE OF THE GOVERNOR
OF. TO ADDRESS SEEN QUESTIONS ON
ALMOST. HE ENDS UP IN THE
ACCOUNTABILITY STATES. THIRD WE
HELD ACCOUNTABILITY NOT JUST OF
THE STATE PROGRAMS BUT TO MAKE
SURE THAT DOLLARS IN COVERAGE
THAT ARE PROVIDED THROUGH THE
STATE. ARE ACCOUNTABLE AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL. AND I THINK WHEN
YOU PEEL AWAY. OR YOU LOOK AT
THE HISTORY OF WHAT
ACCOUNTABILITY HAS MEANT. IT IS
OFTEN MEANT A LITTLE BIT MORE
FINGER POINTING THAN ANY OF US
WOULD LIKE. THE LAST SITTING
DOWN IN COMING TOGETHER AND I
THINK THE WORK. DOXIE CURTAIN
BCS H. IS PUSHING OUR
INTERAGENCY COUNCIL IS PUSHING
NOT JUST AT THE STATE LEVEL BUT
AT THE LOCAL LEVEL TO TAKE
ACCOUNTABILITY OF PARTNERSHIP
MORE SERIOUSLY. TO TAKE
ACCOUNTABILITY AROUND USING AND
LEVERAGING THESE OPPORTUNITIES
IF I HAD MORE TIME I COULD. TELL
YOU STORIES WHEN WE BROUGHT.
PEOPLE IN THE COURTS TO GET WITH
THE PEOPLE IN THE HOMELESS
SERVICE AND- SERVICES. WHERE
THEY ARE ASK EACH OTHER QUESTION
OR WHAT DIDN'T WE TO MORE. OF
SOME OF THESE OTHER
OPPORTUNITIES THAT THE STATE HAS
MADE AVAILABLE AND- IT'S IN
THOSE. CONVERSATIONS THAT WE SEE
PEOPLE PUSHING A LITTLE HARDER
PUSHING A LITTLE FURTHER AND
FRANKLY PUSHING THROUGH A
STANDARD AND WHAT I'M GONNA SAY
OLD AND STALE EXCUSES FOR WHY WE
HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT SO.
I THINK. THERE'S A LOT MORE TO
DO IN THIS SPACE TRANSPARENCY
DASHBOARDS COMMUNICATING CLEAR
GOALS AS PART OF IT BUT I ALSO
THINK IT. HOLD ELECTED LEADERS
INCLUDING EVERYBODY ON. DIS
TODAY I THINK WE HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO PUSH OUR LOCAL
PARTNERS. TO BE MORE AGGRESSIVE
IN MORE ACTIVE IN THOSE
PARTNERSHIP CONVERSATIONS
BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT THERE. I
PERSONALLY THINK WE'RE NOT
TAPPING INTO AND- WE HAVE MORE
TO DO BOB BUT SENATORS SKINNER I
APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING TO JUMP
RIGHT NOW THIS IS BRENDA WAS
VERY RICH CONVERSATION TO GET A
PRIVILEGE TO BE PART OF IT. AND
I'M SURE I'LL HAVE A CHANCE TO
ENGAGE MANY OF YOU ARE IN FUTURE
CONVERSATIONS ARE SOON ENOUGH SO
WITH THAT. SO YOU'RE SKINNER IF
IT'S OKAY WITH YOU I'M GONNA
SIGN OFF AND LEAVE IT IN THE
VERY CAPABLE HANDS OF BRING YOU
CAN IN DIRECTOR. JOHNSON AND- OR
MEDICAID DIRECTOR J. C. COOPER
OKAY. MADAM CHAIR I WOULD JUST
SAY BEFORE IT SIGNS OFF. I WILL
FOLLOW UP. SHOULD IS THE MONEY
TO CAME FROM THE STATE BY DID.
WERE COOPERATE FROM THAT WERE.
CALL CORPORATE BEFORE YOU VERY
MUCH AND JUST FOR ALL OF I WE
DID HEAR FROM VARIOUS- PRESENT.
CENTERS SO FAR SOME NUMBER FOR
EXAMPLE WE HEARD. FIVE HEARD IT
CORRECTLY FROM A MR OLMSTEAD
THAT SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND
HOUSEHOLDS THAT BENEFITED. BY
BILL AND THAT COULD I COULD HAVE
HEARD IT WRONG BUT- WHICH I
THOUGHT WAS A VERY LARGE NUMBER
SEEM TO WAY TOO HIGH TO ME BUT
HE ALSO MENTIONED FIVE HUNDRED
THIRTY FIVE UNITS FOR HOMELESS
YOUTH. THERE WERE SOME OTHER-
SPECIFICS- DOCTOR GOALIE AROUND
THE- BOARDING CARE BEDS AND I
THINK ALL OF US WOULD PROBABLY
BE- WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO SEE.
AGAINST EACH OF THESE
ALLOCATIONS WHAT- EITHER NUMBER
OF UNITS OR NUMBER OF PEOPLE
SERVED DURING THAT KIND OF THING
SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE
SOMETHING WE ALL WILL REQUEST.
BUT IN THE MEANTIME SENATOR NEAL
. CHOOSE ME THANK YOU MADAM
MIGHT MY THOUGHT IS- MY ALONG
THE LINES ARE JUST JUST BEING
DISK. RIGHT NOW. OFTEN IN THE
ASSEMBLY- CENTER LAYERED AND I-
CHANNELED EACH OTHER ON CERTAIN
POINTS AND- HE IS- TODAY- THE
AND THEN THE WORD ACCOUNTABILITY
IS USED A LOT THAT'S- I GUESS
THAT'S WHAT I'M AFTER HERE BUT-
IN THE TIME FRAME OF THESE
EXPENDITURES AND- THE ARRAY OF
PROGRAMS. AND THE AMOUNT OF
EXPENDITURES ARE IMPRESSIVE
INDEED BUT DURING THAT EXACT
SAME TIME FRAME HOMELESSNESS BY
THE COUNTY AND THE GRAPHING HERE
HAS INCREASED BY ALMOST A THIRD.
NOW IT COULD BE THAT ABSENT
THESE PROGRAMS HOMELESSNESS
WOULD HAVE DOUBLED I DON'T KNOW
BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE DATA
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR A RESULTS
NOW WE HAVE. STATISTICS OF
NUMBERS OF PEOPLE SERVED OR
HOUSEHOLDS SERVED OR WHATEVER
BUT WHAT HAVE THESE PROGRAMS-
ACCOMPLISHED IN TERMS OF
ACTUALLY REDUCING THE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE. THAT ARE LIVING ON THE
STREETS. FULL I'D- MR OLMSTEAD I
DON'T KNOW IF EITHER OR- WITH
YOUR- MISS- WICKREMASINGHE WOULD
BE ABLE TO ANSWER THAT OR DO YOU
WANT TO GET BACK TO US. I CAN
OFFER PERSPECTIVE ON HOUSING- IT
TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION CENTER
SKINNER WHEN I CALLED IN THE
SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND NUMBER
THAT'S OVER THE LIFETIME OF
THESE PROJECTS. SO I THINK IT'S
ACTUALLY QUITE IMPORTANT THAT WE
REMEMBER THAT- WE OFTEN THINK
ABOUT HOUSING IN THE CREED
HOUSING IS A ONE TIME INVESTMENT
AND I WAS GOING TO LIVE A LITTLE
BIT MORE THE NEXT PANEL BUT THE
SERVICE WE EAST ACTUALLY
REQUIRED. BY THE AFFORDABILITY
COVENANTS ARE PROJECTED FIFTY
FIVE YEARS SO THEY SERVER IS
VERY CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE SEVEN
DIFFERENT HOUSEHOLD LIFETIME OF
THE PROJECT SO THAT'S WHAT I WAS
QUOTING SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND
ALREADY OVER THE LIFETIME OF
THESE PROJECTS FOR THAT ARE YOU
PAID THAT SPECIFIC THE HOME KEYS
THAT THAT WAS THAT. THANK YOU
SEVENTY THOUSAND FIVE THOUSAND
SPECIFIC TO THE HOME KEY- YES
WE'VE ALREADY CREATED- IN TERMS
OF- THE BROADER QUESTION ON
HOUSING YOU KNOW I ALSO FINISHED
MY COMMENTS THANKFULLY WE AGREE
WITH LISELOTTE APARTMENT. HELLO
THIS IS A HOUSING PROBLEM AND
THE DATA SHOWS THAT INCREASES IN
HOUSING COSTS DIRECTLY
CORRELATING PRISON HOMELESSNESS
AND THAT IS WHAT WE SEE IN
TWENTY SIXTEEN IS A DRASTIC.
INCREASE IN HOUSING COSTS. ALL
RIGHTS. I'VE ROOMS. SENATOR
RICHARD BURR AND THEN CENTER
DRAWS YOU DRIVE YES. SO THANK
YOU THAT COMMON- IT IS A ON THE
UP. AND TWO GREAT. TO MY
QUESTION. AS FAR AS THEY- CAN.
BECAUSE IN. THE PEACH. IN THE
FIRST PAGE FOR THE LATEST LET'S
JUST. I DON'T OFFICE. WE SEE-
THAT. THE AVERAGE CALIFORNIA
HOME COST TWO POINT TWO TIMES
THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. IN ON
THAT- HI I HAVE A QUESTION WITH
REGARDS TO- THE FOLLOWING
THERE'S AN ESTIMATE BY THE
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF HOME
BUILDERS THAT FOR EVERY THOUSAND
DOLLAR INCREASE. IN THE AVERAGE.
COST OF HOMES AT TWELVE THOUSAND
FOUR HUNDRED HOUSEHOLDS CAN NO
LONGER AFFORD TO BUY A HOME IN
CALIFORNIA. I DON'T REALLY SEE
ANY BROAD PROPOSAL FROM THE
GOVERNOR TO DO ANYTHING I TALKED
TO BRING DOWN THE COST OF
HOUSING AS OPPOSED TO OFFERING
SUBSIDIES. AND THE FAILURE TO
HELP REDUCE THE ACTUAL COST OF
HOUSING IS HURTING LOWER INCOME
FAMILIES. THE MOST SHOULD THE
STATE BE DOING MORE TO REVERSE
THE WAY SAY POLICIES MAKE A
HOUSING HOUSING MORE AFFORDABLE
OR TWO SHOULD BE CREATE A- EIGHT
COMMITTEE OR AN OVERSIGHT
COMMITTEES TO ASSESS THE WAY
THAT POLICY IMPACTS THE COST OF
HOUSING CALIFORNIA BEING ONE OF
THE- AT THE FOREFRONT OF HOUSING
AFFORDABILITY IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. CENTER TO- BURKE-
THIS PANEL IS ON HOMELESSNESS
THE NEXT PANEL IS ON AFFORDABLE
HOUSING I'M HOPING THAT THE THIS
MISTER ONSTED IS PART OF THE
SECOND PANEL THERE'S A NUMBER OF
OTHERS I HOPE THAT THEY CAN
ANSWER THAT QUESTION IN THAT
SECOND PANEL I'M JUST CONSCIOUS
OF TIME AND WE HAVE SESSION
TODAY. SO I KNOW I'M GOING TO
HAVE A HARD STOP WELL BEFORE
SESSION SO I'M GOING TO. HOLD
YOUR QUESTION. AND THEN I AM
GOING TO CALL ON AND ASK PLEASE
THAT THESE BE AROUND THE
HOMELESS PART AND THEN WE'LL
MOVE TO THE NEXT PANEL SENATOR
DRAWS SO SENATORS FOLLOWED BY
CENTER SEYARTO. THANK YOU MADAM
CHAIR. LAST WEEK ON THE ISSUE-
BUDGET AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
I MET WITH TRANSIT AGENCIES FROM
LA. AND THE BAY AREA. AND IN
BOTH MEETINGS THE ISSUE OF
HOMELESSNESS AND FUNDING. FOR
HOMELESSNESS WAS RAISED- PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION- SITES OFTEN.
OPERATE AS DE FACTO. SHELTERS
FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE
HOMELESS- BUT ALSO HAS AN-
IMPACT ON THE EMPLOYEES HAS AN
IMPACT ON THE WRITERS AS AN
IMPACT ON. THE INDIVIDUALS
THEMSELVES ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE
IN. AN ACUTE- CRISIS- BUT ALSO
PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO
CONNECT THESE INDIVIDUALS
BECAUSE OF WHERE THEY'RE AT- TO
THE LOCAL SYSTEMS OF CARE SO THE
ISSUE THAT WAS RAISED IS- THAT
TRANSIT AGENCIES ARE NOT ABLE TO
ACCESS. US STATE DOLLARS
DIRECTLY UNDER CURRENT LAW
FUNDING FLOWS TO COUNTIES IN
CONTINUANCE OF CARE BUT THESE
ENTITIES ARE NOT REQUIRED EVEN
TO CONSULT WITH A CONSIDER THE
NEEDS OF TRANSIT AGENCIES. AS
THEY DEVELOP THEIR THEIR PLANS
SO I GUESS MY QUESTION IS-
FUNDING- CREATING OR A DEDICATED
SOURCE OF FUNDING TO ADDRESS
HOMELESSNESS THAT TRANSIT
AGENCIES- COULD ACCESS AND- TO
PROVIDE BETTER COORDINATION WITH
THAT TRANSIT. AGENCIES ANYONE
FOR WHOEVER CAN ANSWER THAT. OUR
PANELISTS EITHER. ONE MAYBE IT'S
APPROPRIATE FOR ME TO MENTION
ONE THING I MEAN WE IMPLEMENT
THE PROGRAMS AS THEY'RE GIVEN TO
US OF COURSE- YOUR AUDIO.
PERDERE THIS AUDIO IS NOT
WORKING NOW. HE'S NOT EVEN
FROZEN YEAH. IT IS- POLITIES WE
STILL CAN'T HEAR YOU. CELL
PHONE- MAYBE TURN OFF YOUR VIDEO
FOR A MOMENT LET'S SEE IF WE CAN
HEAR THEN. ALL RIGHT GO AHEAD
TRY AGAIN. NOPE THAT'S NOT
WORKING. CRISTINA SORRY MR
OLMSTEAD- IT'S OKAY- IF THE
RIGHT IT SAID IT'S A PROBLEM
WITH THE CAN HERE- WELL. THE
CLINTON MAKE. IS IT OR IS THERE
A GOOD ANSWER YEAH LET'S. TO
CENTER SMALLWOOD CUEVAS AND THEN
HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS AT ONCE
OKAY OKAY AND THEN WE WANT TIME
FOR THE NEXT PANEL AND FOR. A
PUBLIC COMMENT TO GO AHEAD
SENATOR SERCO THANK YOU. SO I
KINDA WANT TO TRY TO SUMMARIZE
FROM THE PANELISTS. YOU KNOW
WE'VE GOT LOTS OF COUNCILS THAT
ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF THIS
STAKEHOLDERS OUT THERE WE HAVE A
BUNCH OF DATA THAT PEOPLE ARE
USING TO TRY TO GET A GRASP ON
WHAT PROGRAM SHOULD BE DEVELOPED
WE ALREADY HAVE A BUNCH OF
PROGRAMS. AS STATED BY MY-
COLLEAGUE- FROM. WELL I GUESS EL
DORADO HILLS AREA. KERO FAIR
OAKS EXCUSE ME- BUT FOR AWFUL
YOU KNOW YOU. WELL GOT EVERY GOT
. WE'RE SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY
ON THIS AND THE ACCOUNTABILITY
PART EIGHT IS I MEAN IF SOMEBODY
CAME IN AND GAVE US ALL THIS
INFORMATION YOU THINK OKAY
THAT'S WHERE IT'S ALL GOING. BUT
THE PROBLEM AT THE END OF THE
DAY. HIS CALIFORNIA IS AN ABJECT
FAILURE TO BE ABLE TO REDUCE THE
AMOUNT OF HOMELESSNESS IN IN IN
CALIFORNIA. AND I WOULD LIKE TO
KNOW FROM THE PANELISTS. THERE
HEARD FROM MR HOMESTEAD ALREADY
ONE OF THEM MS HOUSING. BUT I'D
LIKE TO HEAR LIKE ONE OR TWO
WORDS WHAT THEY THINK IS ARE THE
OBSTACLES TO OUR SUCCESS. IN A
IN ADDRESSING THIS. GREAT LET
SAYS SENATOR SMALLWOOD CUEVAS
AND THEN WE'LL SEE ALL.
SUMMARIZE THE QUESTIONS IN THE
LEAD OUR PANELISTS ANSWER GO
AHEAD. THANK YOU AND HERE AND I
GUESS I WANTED TO FOLLOW UP ON
ON THE DATA THAT WE WANT TO SEE
COME BACK- IN TERMS OF. WHAT THE
PROGRAMS- WHAT PROGRAMS ARE WE
FUNDING HOW MANY FOLKS ARE SERVE
WHAT'S THE DEMOGRAPHICS. OF
THOSE. BEEN SERVED- I THINK WHAT
I TOOK AWAY FROM MR DONNELLY'S-
PRESENTATION AND MISS WHAT
BERKELEY FROM IN A- AMBER
STATION EARLIER IS THAT- AS WE
SEE THE DISPARITY IN THE
COMMUNITIES. LIKE THE BLACK
COMMUNITY THAT IS JUST RAVAGED.
BY THIS CRISIS. SORT OF. WE
SPENT MOST OF THE TIME OF THE
BIG INVESTMENTS ON IDENTIFYING
THE PROBLEM BUT NOT ACTUALLY.
INVESTING TARGETED RESOURCES TO
ADDRESS THOSE VERY SPECIFIC IN
UNIQUE WAYS THAT WE CAN- PUT OUT
THE FIRE RIGHT THAT'S BURNING IN
THIS COMMUNITY AND I ST. WHY
THIS IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT IS
BECAUSE IF WE CAN FIGURE OUT
WAYS TO ADDRESS THE UNIQUE WAYS
IN WHICH THIS COMMUNITY. YET SO
SMALL NUMERICALLY BUT REPRESENTS
SUCH A HUGE PORTION OF THOSE.
WHO ARE AND HOW'S WHO ARE
HOMELESS. WE ESSENTIALLY. TAKE A
LOT OF THE CRISIS OUT OF THE
CRISIS. AND SO IT'S BENEFICIAL
FOR ALL CALIFORNIANS TO FIGURE
OUT HOW DO WE ADDRESS.
SPECIFICALLY AND UNIQUELY THIS
VERY SMALL POPULATION THAT HOLDS
SO MUCH OF THE BURDEN AND WHAT I
HEARD FROM MR GOLLY IS THAT WE
HAVE IDENTIFIED. THE CHALLENGES
AND SOLUTIONS BUT WE ACTUALLY
HAVEN'T RESOURCE THEM- AND WE
HAVEN'T EVEN SET GOALS FOR THEM
. AND THAT TO ME A SAYS THAT
THIS CRISIS IS GOING TO BE LONG
FROM OVER. AS WE'RE TALKING THIS
ONE POPULATION HOLDS 40% OF THE
PROBLEM IF WE HAVEN'T EVEN
STARTED TO SET GOALS AND INVEST
IN SOLUTION WE'RE GOING TO BE IN
THIS CRISIS FOR MUCH LONGER SO I
WANT TO FOLLOW UP. WITH MR GOLLY
AND THE FULL TEAM TO UNDERSTAND
HOW WE ARE ACCELERATING THE
SOLUTION AND FOR THIS COMMITTEE
HOW DO WE ENSURE WE'RE
PRIORITIZING INVESTMENT IN
IMPLEMENTING THOSE SOLUTIONS
INTENTIONALLY AND DIRECTLY AND I
THINK WE NEED THAT DATA TO SEE
WHO IS PARTICIPATING. IN WHICH
OF THESE PROGRAMS AND WHAT IS
THE IMPACT IN THAT COMMUNITY THE
SECOND QUESTION I WANT. TO TAKE
THAT NOT IS A QUESTION THAT CAN
ANSWER TODAY BUT THEY CAN GIVE
US INFORMATION LATER THINKING
YOU GIVE YOUR SECOND QUESTION
I'VE GOT SENATOR P. AND THEN I
WANT TO GET THOSE ANSWERS AND
START THAT OTHER PANELS IN THIS
IS MR THANK YOU. MADAM CHAIRMAN
THIS IS A MISTER- HOMESTEAD
WHERE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE
NUMBER OF- PROJECTS AND MY
QUESTION IS HOW ARE WE WHAT IS
THE DATA THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY
INVESTING IN THOSE INDIVIDUALS
WHO ARE HOMELESS AND AT. RISK AT
HOMELESS IN BUILDING. BUILDING
COULD PATHWAY. AS WE ARE
BUILDING THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
I THINK. THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY
AS WE TALKED ABOUT EARLIER THE
FOLKS WHO ARE ON THE CUSP
BECAUSE OF THE ECONOMIC CRISIS
AND LET'S FACE IT. THIS IS A
FORTY YEAR CRISIS IN THE MAKING
IN WHICH WE HAVE SHIFTED FROM A
UNIONIZED INDUSTRIAL WELL PAID
ECONOMY INTO A SERVICE LOW WAGE
ECONOMY AND PART OF OUR LONG
TERM SOLUTION IS HOW DO WE
CREATE MORE QUALITY GOOD. PAYING
JOBS FOR ALL CALIFORNIANS TO
REALLY ADDRESS THIS CRISIS SO
EVEN IN THIS MOMENT THE
CONSTRUCTION ITSELF AS A TOOL TO
PULL THOSE FOLKS AT RISK IN
THOSE IN HOMELESSNESS. OUT OFF
THE EDGE BECAUSE WE'RE PUTTING
THEM INTO CAREERS TO BUILD A
HOUSING THAT CALIFORNIA NEEDS
WHETHER IT'S THE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING WHETHER IT'S THE BIDS
WHETHER IT'S THE LONG TERM YOU
KNOW HOME OWNERSHIP- THAT MY
COLLEAGUES TALKED ABOUT EARLIER.
WHERE IS THE DATA THAT SHOWING
THAT THESE HIGH NUMBERS OF FOLKS
WHO ARE AT RISK OR WHO ARE
CURRENTLY IN HOMELESSNESS THAT
WE CAN MOVE THEM INTO A JOB.
READING ON THE JOB
APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM TO HAVE
CAREERS. IN IN SOLVING THE
PROBLEM FIVE THE OF THAT THEY'RE
GOING TO HAVE THAT DATA RIGHT IN
FRONT OF THEM BUT WE WILL ADD IT
TO THE LIST OF THINGS THAT WE
ARE GOING TO BE ASKING FOR IN
WRITING LATER SENATOR PER DIEM.
CRITICS MANNER IN THE INTEREST I
WILL JUST ASK THAT- THE RELEVANT
STAFFORD APARTMENT FOUND RETURN.
RESPOND TO THESE IN A DIFFERENT
VENUE BUT- CERTAINLY
PROGRAMMATIC DATA COLLECTIONS
IMPORTANT WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
IS INTEGRATED NET IMPACT. OF
PROGRAMMATIC IMPACT AND FROM
LISTENING IN REVIEWING THE L. A.
OZONOLYSIS I'M NOT REAL SURE
THAT WE EVEN HAVE- BECAUSE WE
DON'T HAVE A LOT OF PROGRAM DATA
COLLECTION WE DON'T HAVE ANY
KIND OF NET IMPACT. INTEGRATED
PROGRAMMATIC SORT OF ANALYSIS-
WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT FUNDS THAT
ARE DIRECTED AT REDUCING
HOMELESSNESS AS TO HOW THAT
EXPENDITURE BREAKS OUT IN TOTAL
HOW MUCH OF ITS LOOK YOU KNOW
FOCUSED ON. PERMANENT HOUSING
SHELTERS TRANSITIONAL PROGRAMS
RENTAL ASSISTANCE AND ON THE
FLIP SIDE OF THAT. WHAT IS THE
RATES OF SUCCESS LOOK LIKE AND
WHERE THOSE FOLKS GOING HOW MANY
OF THEM ARE REMAINING STATUS QUO
HOW MANY OF THEM ARE. GOING BACK
TO BEING UNSHELTERED
HOMELESSNESS. HOW MANY MORE BE
IN PLACE SO SORT OF THAT
ANALYSIS I THINK IS MISSING BUT
IT'S NOT. ENOUGH IN MY VIEW TO
JUST COLLECT UNITS SERVER
INDIVIDUAL SERVICE THE IMPACT
SITE EQUATION THAT'S RELEVANT.
ANOTHER ONE MANAGERS JUST FOR B.
C. S. H. I WOULD JUST SAY. AN
UPDATE ON THE TIMING OF THE
LANDSCAPE ASSESSMENT RELEASE AND
THEN FOCUS ON. WHAT IN FACT
ADDITIONAL DATA. OR ANALYSIS
WILL BE PROVIDED AS PART OF THAT
ASSESSMENT IS ALREADY LARGELY
AVAILABLE- AND THANK YOU
MANAGER. THREE WELCOME SIR WE
ARE HAVING SOME CONNECTIVITY
ISSUES. BUT LET ME SUMMARIZE
WHAT I TOOK THE NOTE I TOOK FROM
THE QUESTIONS. AND WHAT I'M
GOING TO SUGGEST IS THAT WE WILL
GIVE THOSE IN WRITING. TO THE
ADDAMS ADMINISTRATION TO THE
PANELISTS TO GET BACK IN WRITING
. SOME OF THOSE QUESTIONS WERE.
WHAT WERE THE FIVE. THE ASSURE
THE TRANSIT- AND WHETHER THERE-
HAS BEEN COOPER. AND WHAT MIGHT
BE SIGNATURE. BECAUSE FOR AND
FROM AROUND THE FUNDING. THEN
THE OBSTACLES TO SUCCESS. THE
OTHER QUESTION WAS WHAT- ON
TERMS OF THE DATA IN QUESTION
THE DATA THAT WE'VE BEEN
REQUESTING IT'S HOW MANY PEOPLE
HAVE BEEN SERVED THE
DEMOGRAPHICS OF THOSE WHO HAVE
SERVED. WHAT WHAT IN THE
SERVICES HOW MANY HAVE RECEIVED
PERMANENT HOUSING HOW MANY IN
TRANSITIONAL HOW MANY. SOLELY
SHELTER- AND I THINK THERE WAS
ONE OTHER ASPECT OF THAT BILL
WHICH WHICH OF THE HOUSING FOR
WHICH OF THOSE SERVED ALSO HAVE
SERVICES RELATED TO THEIR
HOUSING- THOSE WERE THE
QUESTIONS THAT I GOT FROM THIS
LAST. SERIES THAT WE WILL ASK
FOR IN WRITING AND SINCE WE ARE
STILL HAVING CONNECTIVITY
ISSUES- LET ME JUST ASK- DOES
THAT MEAN THAT WE WOULD NOT BE
ABLE TO HEAR FROM. ANY CALLERS
IN. SURE OKAY WELL WE COULD AT
LEAST HEAR FROM THOSE WHO ARE IN
THE WE HAVE A SECOND PANEL BUT
BECAUSE OF THE CONNECTIVITY
ISSUES WE WOULD NOT EVEN BE I
MEAN THE THIRD PANEL PLEASE
APOLOGIES- WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE
TO HEAR FROM THEM SO WHAT I
MIGHT SUGGEST GIVEN THE TIME. IS
THAT WE WOULD RESCHEDULE JUST
THAT ONE BECAUSE IT IS ON
AFFORDABLE HOUSING IT IS
DIFFERENT NOT COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT AS WE- HAVE ALREADY
HEARD FROM. FROM THE HOMELESS
SERVICES BUT SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT
IN TERMS OF WHAT WE HAVE FUNDED.
SO WHAT I MIGHT DO IS RESCHEDULE
THAT. AND AND ASKING NOW FOR
THOSE IN THE IN OUR HEARING ROOM
WE COULD TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT
FROM THOSE IN OUR HEARING ROOM
SINCE THAT IS AVAILABLE TO US
BUT LET ME JUST QUICKLY CHECK IN
WITH THE AFTER A MOMENT BEFORE I
DO THAT. ALL RIGHT SO HOW WE'RE
GOING TO PROCEED IS WE'RE GOING
TO HEAR FROM THOSE IN THE ROOM
FOR PUBLIC COMMENT AND THEN WE
WILL HEAR FROM THOSE ON THE
PHONE. FANS WE WILL SUBMIT TO
OUR PANELISTS THE QUESTIONS THAT
WE'VE GOTTEN IN WRITING SO THAT
WE CAN GET THEM BACK. AND WE
WILL RESCHEDULE THE PANEL THAT
IS ON AFFORDABLE HOUSING OKAY.
SO IN TERMS OF PUBLIC COMMENT-
THOSE IN THE AUDIENCE YOU CAN
COME UP TO THE MIKE. AND- PLEASE

EXITS OUT OF CHRONIC
HOMELESSNESS ARE FOR PERMANENT
HOUSING SOME MEASURES ARE
DIFFERENT TO DO NOT HOLD. THE

THANK YOU. A GOOD AFTERNOON THAT
MADAM CHAIR. AND MEMBERS YES
MEAN PELLET ON BEHALF OF JUSTICE
IN AGING. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
HOLDING THIS IMPORTANT HEARING-
THE ONE ISSUE I'D LIKE TO UPLIFT
IS SOMETHING THAT WASN'T
ADDRESSED TODAY WHICH IS.
HOMELESSNESS AMONGST OLDER
ADULTS IN CALIFORNIA. OLDER
ADULTS HAVE BECOME THE FASTEST
GROWING AGE GROUP EXPERIENCING
HOMELESSNESS IN CALIFORNIA WITH.
45% OF CALIFORNIA'S HOMELESS
INDIVIDUALS. NOW OVER THE AGE OF
FIFTY. MANY OF THOSE FOLKS ARE
BECOMING ON HOUSE FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN THEIR ENTIRE LIVES.
SINCE TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN THE
NUMBER OF ON HOUSE OLDER ADULTS.
OVER THE AGE OF SIXTY FIVE HAS
INCREASED BY A MORE THAN A
HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE PERCENT.
WITH BLACK OLDER ADULTS
OVERREPRESENTED IN THAT
POPULATION AS WELL. WELL WE'RE
APPRECIATIVE OF THE MANY EFFORTS
THAT THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE
LEGISLATURE HAVE IMPLEMENTED IN
RECENT YEARS MANY OF WHICH WERE.
DISCUSSED TODAY THERE HAVE BEEN
FEW TARGETED INVESTMENTS
SPECIFICALLY TO ADDRESS OLDER
ADULT HOMELESSNESS. SPECIFICALLY
WHEN WE LOOK AT THE RENTAL
AFFORDABILITY CRISIS OLDER
ADULTS ARE MOST LIKELY TO
STRUGGLE WITH THE RENT ON
AFFORDABILITY. AND SPECIFICALLY
AS OLDER RENTERS AGE THEY FACE
INCREASED. LIKELIHOOD THAT
THEY'VE EITHER DEPLETED THEIR
SAVINGS OR THEY'VE LOST A SPOUSE
RESULTING IN. OLDER RENTER
HOUSEHOLD OVER THE AGE OF
SEVENTY FIVE FACING THE HIGHEST
COST BURDEN OF ALL OLDER. ADULTS
THE MASTER PLAN FOR AGING IT
DOES HAVE. A PRIMARY GOAL OF
PREVENTING AND ENDING OLDER
ADULTS HOMELESSNESS WITH RENTAL
ASSISTANCE AS A KEY STRATEGY IN
THIS NEXT ROUND OF NEW
INITIATIVES- WE WOULD URGE THE
LEGISLATURE TO SPECIFICALLY
ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF OLDER
ADULTS HOMELESSNESS AND HELP
OLDER RENTERS. THANK YOU SO MUCH
THANK YOU. HI JUST ANGER WITH
THE CALIFORNIA STATE ASSOCIATION
OF COUNTIES REPRESENTING ALL
FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES IN
CALIFORNIA I SEE SECOND
IDENTIFIED HOMELESSNESS IS A TOP
ADVOCACY PARTY THIS YEAR AND I
REALLY APPRECIATE TODAY'S.
INFORMATIVE AND MEANINGFUL
BUDGET HEARING- TO MAKE FURTHER
PROGRESS ON THIS- THE RECENT ONE
TIME INVESTMENTS HAVE REALLY
HELPED COUNTY'S INNOVATE AND
INVEST IN SUCCESSFUL STRATEGIES
AND WE'RE EXCITED TO. SEE THEM
INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET POLLS
MOVING FORWARD. HOWEVER WE
BELIEVE THAT MORE MUST BE DONE-
TO. ACHIEVE SOME SIGNIFICANT AND
MEANINGFUL PROGRESS ON
HOMELESSNESS AND DEVELOPMENT OF
A COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM
ASSOCIATES ACT IS CURRENTLY
ENGAGED IN ASSOCIATION WIDE
EFFORTS- TO YOU KNOW DEVELOPER
CONFERENCE SYSTEM THAT
IDENTIFIES GAPS AND BARRIERS
WITHIN THE EXISTING SYSTEM. THE
DEFINES CLEAR ROLES AND
RESPONSIBILITIES FOR ALL LEVELS
OF GOVERNMENT. AND THAT MAPS OUT
NECESSARY TOOLS AND RESOURCES
NEED TO CURB THE GROWING
HOMELESSNESS CRISIS. INFORMED BY
THE COLLABORATIVE. EFFORT OF
SEVERAL WORKING GROUPS ARE
WORKING TO IDENTIFY THOSE POLICY
CHANGES THAT ARE NEEDED ACROSS A
RANGE OF ISSUES INCLUDING
HOUSING PREVENTION. WORK FORCE
DATA SYSTEMS. THE ONLY SHELTER
RESPONSE SYSTEM IS AVAILABLE
FUNDING SO COUNTIES ARE EAGER TO
PARTNER WITH THE LEGISLATURE
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION WITH
CITIES AND ALL OF THE PARTNERS.
ON TO DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE
THOMPSON'S. RESPONSE SYSTEM
THANKS SO MUCH. TODAY MARKS
DIVERSE OF THE CALIFORNIA
HOUSING PARTNERSHIP. I THINK WE
ALL KNOW THAT THE SOLUTION TO
HOMELESSNESS ACTUALLY IS AN
AFFORDABLE HOME. AND WE AT THE
PARTNERSHIP IN ADDITION TO
HOUSING CALIFORNIA PUBLISHED THE
ROAD MAP HOME TWENTY THIRTY. AND
IT SHOWS THAT WE NEED A HUNDRED
AND ONE POINT TWO MILLION NEW
ADDITIONAL UNITS OF AFFORDABLE
RENTAL HOUSING TO MEET THE NEEDS
OF LOW INCOME FAMILIES OVER A
TEN YEAR PERIOD IN CALIFORNIA.
INCLUDING THOSE WHO ARE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. AND
EVEN AFTER WE ACCOUNT FOR THE
COST REDUCTIONS THAT WE'VE ALSO
PROPOSING THE PLAN THROUGH
VARIOUS THIS IS THE STREAMLINING
MEASURES. THAT THAT COSTS ABOUT
SEVENTEEN POINT NINE BILLION
DOLLARS PER YEAR TO REALLY MEET
THE NEED. I KNOW IT'S A LOT OF
MONEY ANOTHER. EXCUSE ME THEY
WERE EXPERIENCING A DEFICIT BUT
THE PUT THAT IN PERSPECTIVE IT
IS EQUAL TO WHAT WE SPEND ON
HIGHER EDUCATION IN CALIFORNIA
IN ANY GIVEN YEAR WHICH IS ALSO
A STATE PRIORITY- THE LAST TWO
YEARS- AGAIN IF YOU TAKE THAT
ONE POINT TWO MILLION NUMBER
IT'S A HUNDRED AND TWENTY
THOUSAND NEW UNITS PER YEAR. AT
THE WE HAVE- BASICALLY HIT
RECORDS IN LAST YEAR'S BY
PRODUCING TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND
AFFORDABLE UNITS SO WE ARE LIKE
LESS THAN ONE FIFTH OF THE
TOTAL. WHEN WE'RE AT THE PEAK OF
OUR PRODUCTION AND THE REALITIES
OF THE RESOURCES ARE ACTUALLY
DECLINING AS THE ELLIE- CHART
SHOW. AND MOST THE RESOURCES WE
HAVE FOR AFFORDABLE RENTAL
HOUSING THAT ARE AT THE STATE
LEVEL R. ONE TIME NOT MUCH
GUARANTEED BEYOND THE CURRENT
BUDGET CYCLE WE VERY MUCH
APPRECIATE WITH THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSED IN THIS BUDGET AND IS
NOT AT THE SCALE WE WOULD LIKE
BUT IT'S A GOOD START. BUT IT
DEMEANED DESPISE WANT TO PUT IT
IN CONTEXT AND PERSPECTIVE OF
WHAT IT WILL ACTUALLY TAKE. TO
