Tackling the Santa Ana Homelessness Crisis Abigail Baggelaar, Sydney Carlson, Kristiene Jumig, Emily McHorney, Caleb Wilkins, Nina Wolf

May 10, 2021

Our idea is to use our $1.4 billion budget to create low income, transitional housing communities which would act as a bridge between homelessness and independence by providing homeless people with access to shelter, as well as mental health facilities and therapy offices. We would also like to implement resources like job fairs, financial advising, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, and access to various necessities. The idea is that once residents are able to support themselves, they would move out of community housing, making room for someone else.
