California Allocates Funding for Tiny Homes to Address Homelessness Crisis

California Governor Gavin Newsom has announced new funding of over $179 million to create 710 small homes for those experiencing homelessness in seven counties, including Modesto and Sacramento. The project aims to provide housing and support services, such as mental health and substance abuse assistance. The first campus, located in Sacramento, will feature 175 small homes and will be the first of its kind in the city. The governor's office is expediting the construction process to allow for the purchase of more small homes in the future.

Newsom's Homelessness Tour: Tiny Homes for California's Homeless

California Governor Gavin Newsom announced plans to build 1,200 small homes in four major cities to combat homelessness, but San Francisco was not included in the plan. Newsom's deputy chief of staff cited funding and procurement constraints and said the governor is open to including San Francisco in the future. San Francisco Mayor London Breed criticized Newsom's move in November when he temporarily withheld homelessness funding from localities across the state. The plan is part of a statewide tour Newsom is doing in lieu of a traditional State of the State address.
