LA County Proposed Project Homekey+, Permanent Supportive Housing - Make Your Voice Heard
The City respectfully urges the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to deny the inclusion of the 3525 Torrance Blvd Extended Stay site in Los Angeles County’s Homekey+ application.
We welcome and encourage open dialogue between the County and the Torrance City Council to explore more viable alternatives that the City is actively advancing and engage in collaborative discussions to identify mutually supported solutions. We invite all Torrance residents, businesses, and stakeholders to join us in these efforts. Stay informed, participate in public meetings, and help us advocate for thoughtful, locally supported solutions to homelessness.

The City of Torrance is currently building a program to help all houseless individuals in the community. The City has a team of coordinators that regularly check for houseless individuals and establish a friendly relationship with them.
THE PROCESS
Residents that witness a houseless individual can contact the City or report through the MyTorranceCA App.
|
A team will reach out to the individual and will offer all available resources including food, water, and hygiene kits.
|
If there is a vacancy at the 3290 Temporary Housing Village, the individual will be offered a unit.
|
If there is no vacancy at the 3290 Temporary Housing Village, the individual will be put on a waitlist and will be transported to an Emergency Shelter if one is available. The individual will be contacted once there is a vacancy in the 3290 Temporary Housing Village.
