The project, led by RTFH and the city and funded by the state, already has transitioned more than 30 individuals from homelessness to housing, along with providing intensive case management and ongoing support services.
RTFH follows HUD’s guidance around how to handle data during and after research projects, and in June of 2024 RTFH requested clarifications from HUD on data sharing. A summary of HUD’s response along with the agency’s full response to RTFH’s questions can be found here.
RTFH’s Diversion and Resolution Strategies pilot program has demonstrated meaningful progress in ending homelessness in San Diego County.
Who is Falling Into Homelessness and Who is Exiting the System? In the 12 month period between 10/23 and 9/24, 10 people found housing for every 14 people who experienced homelessness for the first time.
The Regional Task Force on Homelessness unveiled its first-ever Regional Community Action Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness in San Diego (aka the “Regional Plan”) through a housing-focused, equity-driven, and person-centered system of care. The new plan sets forth a shared vision, identifies system and resource gaps, and promotes evidence-based approaches with the goal of ending homelessness in the next five years in our region. This “Plan of Plans” incorporates federal, state and local plans to streamline the San Diego region’s needs and create implementable solutions.
