Encompass Housing provides housing supports that aim to eliminate barriers to safe and permanent housing. Housing navigators assist our clients throughout the entire process of securing and maintaining safe and stable housing. We provide assistance with maintaining stable tenancy once housing is secured and also assist with housing security deposits, utility setup fees, first and last month’s rent, and the first month of utilities.
On March 19, 2024, our Recuperative Care Center and Short-Term Post-Hospitalization services at Community Care Campus Long Beach (CCCLB) opened to the public, expanding our ability to address housing inequity and improve care coordination for those experiencing homelessness. We offer 72 Recuperative Care beds and 30 Short-Term Post Hospitalization beds. These services offer support to individuals regaining their strength, functionality, and independence after a hospital stay.
NHHA's Community Care Campus is designed to provide an integrated approach to caring for the whole person. The campus connects the local community with services that address their needs—ranging from physical and mental health to supportive housing. We serve as a safety net for the most vulnerable community members, who, without our care, support, and intervention, might not otherwise have access to essential healthcare services. Our comprehensive care model integrates healthcare delivery with effective interventions that respond to our patients' social determinants of health (SDOH), ensuring that those who would otherwise be unable to receive care are not left behind.
Over the past year, our organization has achieved significant milestones, including providing Housing Navigation Services to over 400 individuals and families, housing 100 individuals since January 2024, and serving more than 120 individuals in our Recuperative Care program. Looking ahead, our goals for the upcoming year include expanding our Housing Supports program to Long Beach, Los Angeles, and the Inland Empire, housing 150 individuals by December 31, 2024, and opening the Hatfield facility to increase our capacity to serve clients in need of Recuperative Care.
