The Governor Gavin Newsom<\/a>, together with the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), announced that 12 organizations funding 14 projects have received a total of $53 million in grants to create more housing options for older adults and adults with disabilities, including people at risk of or experiencing homelessness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The funds will create a total of 402 beds or units, the Governor's Office said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCalifornia is making significant investments in housing to help some of our most vulnerable residents \u2013 low-income seniors and adults with disabilities \u2013 live safely and with dignity in their communities,\u201d Newsom said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are supporting local communities to acquire, renovate and improve properties across the state, providing not only a place to call home, but helping people stay out of homelessness,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grants were awarded through the new Community Care Expansion (CCE) Program, which, through Governor Newsom\u2019s budget, will provide a total of $570 million for the acquisition, rehabilitation, and construction of adult and senior care facilities serving Supplemental Security Income\/State Supplemental Payment (SSI\/SSP) and Cash Assistance for Immigrants (CAPI) applicants and recipients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, these funds also went to other community-based residential care settings, such as permanent supportive housing and recovery care sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThese significant and timely investments will provide new housing options that will support older adults and adults with disabilities in California,\u201d said CDSS Director Kim Johnson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe must continue to combat our homeless crisis. Through this effort, we are breathing new life into aging facilities and acquiring and building new facilities that will support some of our most vulnerable residents, including people at risk of becoming homeless or experiencing homelessness,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multi-million dollar investments in homeless housing will provide more than 55,000 new housing units and treatment spaces in the coming years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
