The City of Riverside is aggressively working to address homelessness in our community in partnership with a wide-range of non-profit organizations, social service agencies, faith-based institutions and others working together to end homelessness in our community.
In June of 2003, the City of Riverside adopted the “Riverside Community Broad-Based Homeless Action Plan.” Since its adoption, the City has aggressively pursued implementation of 30 action-based strategies within the plan including hiring a Homeless Services Coordinator, opening a new Emergency Shelter, developing a Multi-Service Access Center, allocating new funding for homeless prevention and rental assistance activities, expanding funding to community-based service agencies, strengthening collaboration with faith-based and other community service providers and developing new permanent supportive housing opportunities.
