San Diegans experiencing homelessness will soon have a new resource to use while they get back on their feet.
It will provide 15 parking spaces for unhoused residents to sleep overnight in their vehicles, with access to resources including employment assistance, credit repair and financial literacy.
There are also 12 camper trailers families can live in for as long as they need to. The trailers sleep six people and come with showers and bathrooms. The state of California donated the campers as part of its emergency response to the homelessness crisis. Todd Gloria wants these repurposed parking lots to spread.
“There's nothing magical about this parking lot,' Gloria said."Every city in this county has one. Consider whether or not your city can actually make space for the people who are homeless in your city and actually provide services to them.”“We take for granted that the normal basic necessities of life, but when you don't have them anymore, you start to realize how quickly you miss them," Johns said."Just having a bed to lay out on is way more than we could ask for.
