Draft FY 2023-24 Homeless Initiative Funding Recommendations to be Available for Community Feedback

Webinar will Provide a Detailed Briefing on Proposed Spending Plan

Los Angeles County will share its draft homeless initiative funding recommendations for fiscal year 2023-24 during a webinar at 10 a.m. Nov. 8. It will be the first set of recommendations that reflects the County’s new framework to end homelessness, which focuses on:

  • Increasing permanent housing placements
  • Improving flow through the rehousing system, moving people from street to housing more effectively
  • Serving people with complex challenges who face barriers exiting homelessness
  • Expanding collaborative partnerships with cities and Councils of Governments

The public is invited to attend the webinar, where homeless initiative executive director Cheri Todoroff will provide a detailed briefing about the county’s proposed spending plan for homeless prevention, outreach, interim housing, permanent housing, and supportive services that receive funding through Measure H, a 1/4-cent sales tax approved by county voters in March 2017, and through the State of California’s Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention or HHAP grant program.

The proposed spending plan does not encompass all of the county’s investments to address and prevent homelessness in a given fiscal year but represents a significant portion. It will be posted on the Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative website next week, along with an online form for submitting feedback during the Public Comment period: Nov. 8 to 22.
