A Bridge Home Groundbreakings

On behalf of Councilman Joe Buscaino and Mayor Eric Garcetti, you are invited to join back-to-back groundbreakings in San Pedro and Wilmington for the Bridge Home projects. This will be the second and third project in Council District 15, creating a total of 300 new temporary beds for individuals experiencing homelessness within the respective communities. 

A Bridge Home has an on-site provider that will ensure individuals have access to mental health services, substance abuse counseling, a medical health care provider, job readiness training, and social integration opportunities. Each site has a designated on-site private security, and the community surrounding the facility will receive enhanced LA Sanitation clean ups five days a week and a two-person LAPD unit 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
