With Fresno County now administering the coordinated homeless response for the region, the state has awarded $10.1 million to help reduce unsheltered homelessness.<\/p>\n

In 2025, Fresno County supervisors approved an agreement bringing management of the Fresno Madera Continuum of Care under the county umbrella<\/a>. The continuum, made up of several local agencies and nonprofits, helps coordinate homeless services throughout the two counties.<\/p>\n

The continuum also conducts the annual Point-in-Time Count<\/a>, estimating the number of homeless people in the region.<\/p>\n

Money from the sixth round of the state\u2019s Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention Program will go toward more money for emergency shelters, youth shelters, rental assistance, homeless prevention, and street outreach programs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith this HHAP-6 funding, Fresno County is in a stronger position to build a consolidated system of care for our Fresno County residents experiencing homelessness that combines compassion and better coordination for long-term solutions,\u201d said Supervisor Nathan Magsig.<\/p>\n

City Recently Received $10.5 Million Grant<\/p>\n

The grant money comes after the state awarded a similarly sized grant to the city of Fresno<\/a>. The grant money had largely been up in the air considering the state\u2019s projected budget deficit. In its news release, the county said money will result in coordinated delivery for the region\u2019s most-needed services.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis investment will enable Fresno County and our partners to meet people where they are in their journey and equip our unhoused friends and neighbors to move toward housing and stability,\u201d said Supervisor Luis Chavez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With Fresno County now administering the coordinated homeless response for the region, the state has awarded $10.1 million…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":215351,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[112,114,113],"class_list":{"0":"post-215350","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fresno","8":"tag-fresno","9":"tag-fresno-headlines","10":"tag-fresno-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215350","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215350"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215350\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/215351"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215350"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215350"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215350"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
