LIVE ·2023 Grants ChallengeShelter Me App
Nearly 75% of Angelenos experiencing homelessness are unsheltered - but identifying available shelter accommodations is challenging, leading many to decide it's easier to stay on the streets. The Shelter Me App will provide real-time bed availability and critical safety information, like populations served and services provided, in shelters across L.A. It will be available to people experiencing homelessness, case managers, and outreach workers, so service providers can better help and people experiencing homelessness can find and use shelter.
