We closed on two Project HomeKey projects!
The UPholdings team, along with our exceptional co-development partners, RH Community Builders, have been working at break-neck speed to ensure two awarded projects from California’s innovative Project HomeKey program are ready for occupancy by the beginning of next year. Today we are happy to announce we passed a major milestone - we closed on both properties!
Over the past few months UPH received two awards totaling over $20.3 million from the Project HomeKey program. The program announced by Governor Gavin Newson is California’s first-in-the-nation initiative to purchase and rehabilitate hotels, motels, or vacant apartment buildings to convert into permanent, long-term housing for people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness.
The first project awarded is an acquisition of a 45-room motel in Visalia named The Sequoia. The project’s county sponsor is the Tulare County Health and Human Services Agency and was awarded $5.2 million from Project HomeKey to assist in acquisition and the first few years of operations. The Sequoia will begin operating most of the units as a non-congregate shelter for individuals at risk from COVID-19 while the remaining units are to be rehabbed into permanent supportive housing.
The second project awarded, Crossroads Village, is a partnership with the County of Fresno to acquire 204 units in a prime location within the city of Fresno. Crossroads Village was awarded $15.3 million to acquire the site and the innovative project will provide permanent housing solutions for more than 200 individuals who have been staying in emergency shelter beds.
We are proud of our partnerships and the work we have accomplished so far, while we have much to do before the end of the year, we look forward to making a difference in Tulare and Fresno counties!
It's exciting to see the progress on The Sequoia and Crossroads Village! These projects will truly make a difference for so many vulnerable individuals. It makes me think about how sharing stories like these can inspire others in the community to get involved. I recently used something like SBTI Match to discuss social initiatives with friends, and it sparked some great conversations about local support efforts!
A server that begins as a personal note-taking space and then opens to a few others is an unusual and refreshing concept. The page does not try to sell you on it; it simply explains the current state of things, which is honest and practical. For people who value small, transparent communities over large platforms, this could be a good match. You can find the full details on the official site for this instance and see if it aligns with your expectations.
The progress on The Sequoia and Crossroads Village is impressive! These projects are crucial for providing long-term housing solutions and supporting vulnerable communities. It’s interesting to think about how sharing updates like these could energize local support. If anyone wants to compare how they feel about these initiatives with friends, you might explore your social energy type at SBTI Match; it could spark some great conversations!
The announcement about closing The Sequoia and Crossroads Village is a notable step toward addressing homelessness in California. The initiative not only provides immediate shelter but also aims for long-term housing solutions, which is crucial for those in need. It reminds me of how community efforts can drive significant change. For anyone looking to document similar initiatives, a tool like Clean the Golf Yard Wiki might help in organizing their findings effectively.
Great post with lots of useful information. After reading this, I thought about Geometry Dash Lite online. I enjoy how you can play quickly without downloading anything, and every stage introduces fresh obstacle patterns that make you want to keep trying until you finish.
