The Community Resource Coordination meetings began in 2017 and are intended to identify needs within the community and to assist those experiencing homelessness. The City organizes meetings on an as-needed basis to further the community's homeless prevention efforts. Once a topic has been identified, staff will coordinate a meeting with various organizations to provide opportunities to stay informed about new or existing resources available within our community. Information for upcoming meetings, as well as, previously discussed topics are available below. Those interested in receiving meeting and other information related to the Community Resource Coordination efforts are encouraged to sign up to receive email notifications to get the latest information.

Add to my Calendar

The County of Ventura needs your help to complete the Homeless Count on Tuesday, January 26, 2016. The Count is a requirement for every community that receives federal funding from the United States Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD). Funding from HUD is extremely important in the effort to reduce homelessness and accounts for $2 million annually to support homeless individuals and families in Ventura County.

Volunteers are needed in Simi Valley and throughout the County. Volunteers will work in teams and will receive training in recording the Count. Volunteer teams go out in the early to mid morning hours to places where homeless individuals are known to gather. Most counters are in the field for a couple of hours, at a time, and must be at least 18 years old. To learn more and to register for this community volunteer opportunity, please click here or visit www.VolunteerVenturaCounty.org. Interested volunteers can also call Yvonne Flores at (805) 485-6288, Ext. 267 or via email at yvonne.flores@vcunitedway.org. Registered volunteers who will be counting in will be required to attend one of the below trainings in Simi Valley. Please see the below training schedule for dates and location:
