| According to a January 1995 report, a survey of the homeless
revealed that the region continues to need additional transitional and permanent housing
options. Further, employment and training agencies need to be closely linked to
transitional and permanent housing programs for homeless people. That’s where
Community Housing Developers comes in . . .
Monterey Glen, a 95-unit single room occupancy complex developed in San
Jose by CHD as a joint-venture project with Emergency Housing Consortium, has emphasized
the need for residents to be employed or be in a job-training program. This emphasis has
helped to enforce the stability of residents, increase their incomes and skill levels, and
give them greater self-esteem and determination. |
