Irvine Emphasizes Prevention, Partnership, Compassion to Find Solutions for Homeless

The City of Irvine has a long history of providing solutions that help prevent homelessness. Irvine is leading the way with affordable housing initiatives, providing more housing than any other Orange County city. However, we know this isn’t the whole solution. That’s why we have implemented compassionate outreach with the creation of the Irvine Police Department’s Mental Health Team, which includes a dedicated Homeless Liaison Officer. And we’ve partnered with nonprofit organizations to provide help for those in need.
