SANTA CLARITA ? CALIFORNIA HOMELESS SHELTER LINKS

SANTA CLARITA? VALENCIA? - PLANNED COMMUNITIES - and surrounds do not seem to have a homeless shelter in town. A search for this area proved to redirect people to 15-25 miles away. HOMELESS OFTEN FEEL THE NEED TO STAY CLOSE TO THE PLACE THEY CALLED HOME where they may still have use of some services, know their way around, etc.

WE BELIEVE CHASING PEOPLE INTO DOWNTOWN CITY AREAS - SKID ROWS - IS A MISTAKE and Communities need to make an effort to take care of their OWN! Pacoima is one of the barrios - known for gangs!
