Our Past Initiatives
In addition to our current strategies, Destination: Home has led several initiatives that have since sunsetted. These initiatives not only helped thousands of homeless and at-risk individuals, the data and insight gained from these efforts continue to inform the ongoing work to end and prevent homelessness in Santa Clara County.
Read more about some of the programs we’ve helped launch over the past decade:
Housing 1000
This 3-year pilot proved its possible to end homelessness with housing, while demonstrating the cost effectiveness of housing and laying the foundation for communitywide Housing First policies.
All the Way Home
A community campaign to end veteran homelessness, convening public, private and nonprofit partners to ultimately house more veterans than those becoming homeless.
COVID-19 Response
A large coalition of public and private partners quickly pivoted early in the pandemic to prevent a massive wave of new homelessness, providing $85.4M to nearly 20,000 at-risk households.
