San Bernardino is scheduled to launch an eight-member homeless outreach team on June 15.
Team members will find homeless individuals in the city and connect them with housing, transportation, and other services, according to a statement on the city’s website.
“As we promised, San Bernardino is taking action to address homelessness,” said Mayor Helen Tran in the statement. “In addition to the new Outreach Team, we are cleaning up encampments, cleaning up our parks, and adding shelter beds. Residents are noticing a difference already.”
San Bernardino is partnering with the Los Angeles County-based Hope the Mission to help its homeless population.
The outreach team will include a program manager, two peer specialists, two case managers, two counselors, and a data coordinator, according to the statement.
