Event Information
Description
Join San Jose City Council District 1 neighbors for a neighborhood conversation about homelessness. Learn about how our community is working to address homelessness, and how you can get involved to prevent and end homelessness in District 1 and throughout Santa Clara County.
Have you ever asked...
- What is the Community Plan to End Homelessness?
- What is supportive housing, and how does it work?
- How do we work to both prevent and end homelessness in San Jose and throughout the county?
