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.

Community volunteers are needed for the annual count and survey of homeless persons in Ventura County. The 2017 Ventura County Homeless Count and Subpopulation Survey is scheduled for the morning of Tuesday, January 24, 2017. A youth survey will be conducted on the afternoon of Friday, January 27, 2017.

The annual Homeless Count is coordinated by the Ventura County Continuum of Care, in partnership with community partners and cities. The data, collected through a short survey and observation provides a Point-In-Time (PIT) "snapshot" as to what the homeless population in Ventura County looks like during a single day to help community leaders better understand who is homeless, why and for how long.

In order to conduct a full and accurate count, the Ventura County Continuum of Care is seeking 300 volunteers. Volunteers are required to attend training in their community and will be paired up on the morning of the count to canvass areas seeking persons to survey. Interested volunteers can sign up by clicking here or visiting www.VolunteerVenturaCounty.org. For additional information please contact Jennifer Harkey, Continuum of Care Staff at (805) 685-4342.
