Join us for Meet People First: Community Impact in Action, a closer look at how People First supports Santa Cruz County's homeless community.
Our team will guide you through one person’s journey, from the first contact with People First to shelter and immediate needs, ongoing support, and the steps toward housing. Along the way, you’ll hear what our staff are seeing on the ground, where the needs are greatest, and how the community can help.
