LAHSA is a City-County Joint Powers
Authority, an independent unit of local government, formed to
address the problems of homelessness on a regional basis.
As an administrative entity, LAHSA contracts with community-based
nonprofit agencies to provide homeless services throughout Los
Angeles County. LAHSA advocates for the needs of homeless
people, plans for and funds homeless services through contracted
providers, and ensures effective use of public resources through
program and fiscal monitoring of funded programs. LAHSA's
Emergency Response Team provides crisis outreach to engage homeless
person to accept services. LAHSA collaborates with other regional
public agencies that serve homeless people, and with partner
advocacy and service organizations to maximize effective use of
resources.
