In 2022, the legislature passed AB 1991, which delivered much needed clarity and guidance regarding tenancy to motels, hotels, and shelter providers participating in programs that provide shelter to homeless individuals. Before the passage of the legislation, shelter programs had to ‘shuffle’ homeless individuals to new locations every 30 days, an extremely disruptive practice counterproductive to the goal of assisting this vulnerable community. This morning, Governor Newsom signed California Assembly Bill 2835 and will pass into law! This bill deletes the January 1, 2025, sunset date on AB 1991, thereby permanently allowing hotels and motels to provide housing to a person enrolled in a shelter program for longer than 30 days without establishing tenancy. LAFH is proud to be a lead sponsor on this bill and it's passing!

It's a beautiful day for a grand opening! Today we joined our friends at HACLA, Councilmember Bob Blumenfield's office, Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel's office, Senator Caroline Menjivar's office, and LAFH Builds for the grand opening of Canoga Park Place - a former Project Roomkey motel that was converted to 51 units of permanent housing through Project Homekey. We're so grateful to everyone who came together to make this project possible! #endhomelessness #cd3 #projectroomkey #projecthomekey

It's back to school time!

Highlights from the recent Fuel For School with Brian and Emily Soloway Annual Event! Your efforts in helping families transitioning away from homelessness get the supplies they need for the 2024/2025 school year were truly impactful. Thanks to your commitment, we were able to cover three family sites that would have otherwise had to purchase their own school supplies. This generosity allows them to redirect those funds to other essential needs. Thank you for your support! #BacktoSchool #endhomelessness
