Homelessness resource telephone system.
- Requires Los Angeles County to establish a dedicated phone system for connecting homeless individuals to resources.
- Creates a centralized hotline for both currently homeless and at-risk individuals to access public agency services.
- Mandates state reimbursement to the county if the program creates additional costs.
Assembly Member Caloza's proposal to establish a dedicated homelessness resource telephone system in Los Angeles County aims to create a centralized point of contact for individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The system would connect callers with local public agency resources and support services throughout the county.
The measure requires Los Angeles County to develop and maintain the telephone system, adding to existing communication infrastructure that includes the nonemergency 311 system. The new system would operate alongside current homeless services programs, including the Homeless Emergency Aid program and the Emergency Housing and Assistance Program, which provide funding for shelter and support services.
The bill's findings cite unique circumstances related to homelessness in Los Angeles County as the basis for this county-specific approach. Under the measure's provisions, if the Commission on State Mandates determines the program creates new costs for local agencies, the state would provide reimbursement through established Government Code procedures.
