The Emergency Interim Housing (EIH) program is intended to provide Emergency Interim Housing opportunities to unhoused single adults. The EIH is designed with a focus on safety and client-centered care through three phases of service delivery – Emergency Interim Housing, Transition Period, and Bridge Housing. The EIH Bernal site is a single adult referral-based only program with no drop-in services provided. The EIH Bernal site will consist of 80 single adult sleeping units with private restrooms and showers, and a community space that will include access to a shared kitchen, computer lab, pet area, and vehicle parking.
The EIH site will offer a variety of supportive services, community engagement, and direct contributions to help each participant achieve stable housing. Sites will be fully staffed and operate seven days per week, 24 hours per day with on-site security services. The Resident Advocate is responsible for the overall day-to-day operation on-site and responds to program participants' needs on an as-needed basis. They facilitate the flow of on-site amenities like access to clinical services, workshops, laundry supplies, and food services ensuring each participant's essential needs are met. They also ensure participant, staff, and guest safety through regular check-ins and monitoring of the site grounds and sleeping units.
