The Coalition of Homeless Services Providers is the County’s designated Continuum of Care Coordinator (CoC). A CoC represents the totality of services and housing available to individuals and families in crisis/homelessness within a defined region. Monterey and San Benito Counties recently merged CoCs in order to create an integrated, regional approach to addressing homelessness. In 2009, new federal legislation was enacted by Congress called the HEARTH (Homeless Assistance, Rapid Transition to Housing) Act – which built upon the former McKinney-Vento legislation, but with a renewed focus on prevention and a systems-wide (at all levels-Federal, State & Local) approach to addressing and ending homelessness. In response, in Monterey and San Benito Counties, a new, HEARTH Act-compliant 10 Year Plan to End Homelessness (Plan) called Lead Me Home, was developed and adopted in late 2012 with representative input and guidance from local Counties’ Depts. Of Social Services, Behavioral Health, Public Health, Public Housing, Business and Civic Community, Law Enforcement, Justice, Community-Based Service Providers and Affordable Housing Developers, Targeted Population Government Services (Veterans, seniors, schools, youth) and local Elected Officials.

The Community Action Partnership (CAP) was established in 1964 during President Johnson’s “War on Poverty.” CAP funding today is drawn down through Community Services Block Grants. The CAP is designated by the County Board of Supervisors to specifically provide a focal point to coordinate and plan for the provision of community services that support, assist, and empower low-income people and to improve their quality of life. The CAP engages in three major activities to achieve this mission: contracting with nonprofit and public agencies for services, collaborating with community stakeholders, and supporting educational community activities.

In partnership with the Coalition of Homeless
Service Providers, the Community Action
Partnership has compiled this guide to assist the
community in connecting to resources that serve the
homeless and at-risk populations in Monterey
County.
This guide to homeless services in Monterey
County is comprised of public and non-profit
resources. The guide is not exhaustive and every
effort has been made to include accurate and
current information. Services in the community are
frequently changing and the details regarding
specific services provided should always been
confirmed directly by the individual agency. The
inclusions of services into this guide do not imply
recommendation or endorsement.
