On any given night, 34,000+ people are homeless in the Bay Area.
Homelessness is on the rise here. Why?
• More people struggle to afford housing in our community.
• More people live below the poverty line.
• More women with children are escaping domestic abuse.
• More people suffering from mental illness are living on the streets.
• More families describe themselves as “living on the edge” of poverty.
