Housing Support Program (HSP)
The Housing Support Program follows Rapid Rehousing and Progressive Engagement models. HSP services are provided to families with children who are receiving public assistance and are eligible for Cal-WORKs. Participants must be literally homeless, which is defined as, “lacking a fixed or regular nighttime residence, are in temporary shelter, or are residing in a place not meat for human habitation.” Families enrolled in HSP are assessed based on their level of crisis and their level of vulnerability.
The Housing Support Program can only be accessed through a referral from CalWORKs+.

Wraparound
Wraparound is a voluntary, strength-based approach, which helps youths and their families become stable. This is accomplished through team meetings where the family and the Wraparound team collaboratively create and individualized plan that is based upon the family’s needs. Wraparound is driven by the 10 principles and is delivered through activities in four concurrent phases. Wraparound ultimately is not a program, it’s a process.
The Wraparound Program can only be accessed through a referral from Child Protective Services or Probation.
