Illumination Foundation provides housing and healthcare for those experiencing homelessness. It is critical to provide integrated services to address the whole person in their journey to overall well-being.

Illumination Foundation’s mission is to disrupt the cycle of homelessness.
About us
Our mission is to provide targeted, interdisciplinary services for the most vulnerable homeless clients to break or prevent the cycle of homelessness. Studies show that families with children are the fastest growing segment of the homeless population in America. This is especially true in Orange County, where one of the most expensive housing markets in the nation creates an immense gap between income and affordable housing. In 2007, the Illumination Foundation was founded to create a safety net for these homeless families by providing ongoing patient-centered housing, healthcare, workforce, and educational services. For the past ten years, we’ve committed ourselves to providing the best care possible for the homeless, focusing on services that will assist families into stable housing. By assessing families and individuals as they enter our care, we can identify their unique needs and provide immediate relief when necessary. We utilize public/private partnerships to ensure that our clients are connected to all community resources available to them.

We’re proud to have Dr. Pooja Bhalla, DNP, RN and Jordan Hoiberg represent Illumination Foundation at the 2024 California Recuperative Care Symposium last week in Sacramento! Dr. Bhalla and Jordan Hoiberg led a session called “Our CalAIM Journey: Challenges and Opportunities.” Our team presented best practices on recuperative care and valuable insights from our Partnership In Action partnership with CalOptima and OC Health Care Agency. Through this partnership, Illumination Foundation offers recuperative care for high utilizers of emergency medical services and sets them on a path to permanent housing. Recuperative care provides short-term, residential support for homeless individuals experiencing homelessness who are recovering from illness or injury. We offer medical oversight, case management, and a safe space for recovery. As we lead the way in the Recuperative Care program, we hope to inspire similar models across the state and beyond. Thank you to everyone who joined this important conversation! It was great to interact with other recuperative care providers in the state. #ifhomeless #IlluminationFoundation #CalOptima #OCHealthCareAgency #RecuperativeCare #MedicalRespite #supportivehousing

Wild Wild IF! We swapped office chairs for picnic benches, laptops for lawn games, and emails for conversations! This was our third annual staff picnic where we show our appreciation to our staff who make our mission possible.
