LA County expands funding for families in crisis (sgvtribune.com)

Dana Brown (PACEs Connection Staff) 3/15/179:27 AM

The Board of Supervisors voted today to allow dollars once designated for permanent housing to be spent on “crisis housing” to get families off the street until longer-term solutions can be found.

Supervisor Janice Hahn recommended creating more flexibility in the way housing dollars are used.

With a vacancy rate of less than 2 percent in some cities in Los Angeles County, it can take on average three to nine months to find permanent housing for eligible homeless families.
