Giving Tuesday

With your support in 2024/25, we provided critical resources to 802 community members. Together, we are ending homelessness in our community. Please support our ongoing efforts this Giving Tuesday, Dec 2, 2025.

Homekey Program

A statewide effort to sustain and rapidly expand housing for persons experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. This is permanent housing at three different properties in South Lake Tahoe. Residents pay rent and are provided supportive services and case management through the Cal Aim program.

Coordinated Entry

Coordinated Entry (CE) is a standard, community-wide intake and triage process to match people experiencing homelessness in El Dorado County with community resources that best fit their situation.

Emergency Shelter

Now we offer an emergency shelter with 14 beds where clients are welcome 24 hours a day and receive 3 meals daily. They have access to case managers who can provide supportive services, including housing navigation.

Rapid Rehousing

Through the Emergency Solutions Grant, we provide permanent housing that provides short-term (up to three months) and medium-term (4-24 months) tenant-based rental assistance and supportive services to households experiencing homelessness.

Arise

This program provides rapid rehousing to survivors of domestic violence.

Street Outreach 

Street Outreach activities are designed to meet the immediate needs of people experiencing homelessness in unsheltered locations by connecting them with emergency shelter, housing, or critical services, and providing them with urgent, non-facility-based care. Component services generally consist of engagement, case management, emergency health and mental health services, and transportation.
