Subject: Contra Costa County Homeless Shelters and Support Services
Dear Supervisor Torlakson:
Thank you for informing the City of San Ramon on the status of the County's
Homeless Shelter Program and your request to support the County's efforts to help
the homeless. The City of San Ramon has long recognized the need to prevent
homelessness and to provide families and individuals with the opportunity to attain
and maintain affordable housing in Contra Costa County.
In 1990, the City made a $10,000 contribution to SHELTER, Inc., of Contra Costa
County, Office on Homelessness, to their Winter Relief Program. Subsequently, in
1992 and 1993, San Ramon has committed a total of $20,000 to SHELTER Inc., to
extend its services, including a local telephone number and the implementation of a
Shared Housing and Financial Assistance Program to residents located in southern
Contra Costa County. Additionally, the City sponsored a Fair Housing Workshop for
landlords located in San Ramon.
It is anticipated that San Ramon will continue to commit its resources to assist
homeless and potentially homeless populations. I hope that our past and present
donations will be recognized as significant contributions to the County's efforts to
expand services for the homeless.
Sincerely,
�Gt�►�cc�v � ��om�
