OUTREACH HOT SPOTS:
Case managers have focused on engaging potential clients living under the gazebos at Apollo Park and in vehicles around businesses along Firestone Boulevard. Teams also partnered with Downey Police Officers to assist with an encampment clean-up around the 105 underpass. City Net collaborated with the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) to provide clients with emergency motel vouchers.
