The Housing & Homeless Resources CARE program utilizes Clark County Social Service financial programs to assess and address the challenges faced by those experiencing housing instability.

Our team actively participates in outreach events, offering interested individuals housing assessments along with access to financial resources and applications. The program’s primary objective is to enhance our community's capacity to support the unhoused and intervene in crises such as evictions.

At resource and outreach events, our team engages directly with individuals experiencing homelessness, providing immediate housing solutions where necessary. Through comprehensive case management and service coordination, the program strives to transition individuals from temporary housing arrangements to sustainable, long-term solutions.

The Homeless Outreach CARE program works in collaboration with the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to provide outreach services to the unhoused population throughout Clark County. This program is committed to conducting comprehensive assessments, facilitating service connections, and offering essential resources and assistance to individuals in need.

Through our outreach efforts, we aim to stabilize those experiencing homelessness by addressing immediate needs such as deposits, transportation, and case management support. By engaging directly with individuals in the community, we strive to build trust and establish meaningful connections that can lead to long-term solutions.

Our team also assists households in achieving self-sufficiency through access to Bridge housing and other relevant referrals obtained during outreach events and community interactions.
