Description
San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria visited Sacramento on Tuesday to advocate for permanent homelessness funding.
He led a bipartisan coalition of 13 mayors from California's biggest cities in urging Gov. Gavin Newsom and the state legislature to commit at least $1 billion a year to the state's primary homelessness program on an ongoing basis.
Money from the Homelessness Housing, Assistance and Prevention Program has served close to 150,000 people and created more than 15,700 emergency shelter beds and interim homes, according to a report by the Big City Mayors.
