5 Cities Homeless Coalition Inc

5Cities Homeless Coalition transforms lives in San Luis Obispo County. The Coalition strengthens communities by mobilizing resources, fostering hope, and advocating for those who are homeless or facing homelessness. Efforts focus on helping the most vulnerable populations maintain dignity while working toward a new home (or retaining their homes). Coalition staff work directly with individuals and families to go beyond the immediate, ensuring they have a plan, skill sets, education and financial means to be successful and self-sufficient. Since its inception in 2009, 5Cities Homeless Coalition has developed strength as a community leader by working closely with other community agencies and organizations, becoming the "go to" agency for housing and supportive services. The Coalition works to build an engaged community that understands the complexities of homelessness and that actively shares the responsibility of creating and implementing solutions to reduce it.
