The Department of Social Services and Housing 

Who We Are and the Programs We Manage

On October 20, 2021, the City Council approved the creation of a Social Services and Housing Department to restructure existing City homeless outreach as part of the Reimagine Public Safety objective from the 2021-2023 Council Goals. This new department will focus on a more comprehensive community health and safety network and will work closely with other City and County departments, community-based organizations and other service providers involved in the social services of the City. In addition, this department will focus on early intervention and prevention, mental health, affordable housing, homelessness services, data analysis and more.
