When I took office in 2019, my goal was clear: to reverse decades of inaction on housing and homelessness and ensure there was enough housing and care for people to leave the streets.
Today is a significant step forward in our investments. We're turning our goal into a reality.

Today @CAgovernor Gavin Newsom awarded $38.2 million to 68 California tribal governments to support them in addressing housing and homelessness with culturally responsive interventions that meet the unique needs of their members. @CAbcsh #WhereFoundationsBegin 1/5
ALT “California is strengthening its partnership with tribal governments through programs and initiatives rooted in dignity, self-determination, and stability. Tribal communities know their people, their histories, and their challenges best. This government-to-government approach is designed to respect tribal sovereignty while addressing historic inequities and supporting efforts to reduce homelessness and help more Californians move off the streets and into safe, stable housing.”
