🟣 Today, our United to End Homelessness team (even our remote members) are rocking purple for #PurpleThursday, a day dedicated to raising awareness about domestic violence. We stand united with survivors and want to shed light on the hidden struggles faced by so many. Domestic violence affects people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds, and its impact is often deeply tied to issues like homelessness. Together, we can advocate for safer communities, spread compassion, and amplify the voices of our neighbors. 🤲 By wearing purple, we show our support and solidarity, hoping to inspire others to take a stand against domestic violence. 💜 Let's continue to break the silence, support survivors, and work towards a future where everyone feels safe and has a place to call home!

About us
Homelessness has grown to crisis proportions in Orange County. Too many of our fellow neighbors have lost hope. Veterans who fought for our freedom are now fighting for a place to call home. People with disabilities often find themselves chronically homeless. If we don't tackle this now through a comprehensive community-wide solution, it will spiral out of control.

Additionally, they have a say in approving new housing developments, especially in unincorporated areas and bringing in funding from state and federal grants for key projects like converting motels into permanent supportive housing.
