CHAIR HORVATH RESPONDS TO STATE EXECUTIVE ORDER ADDRESSING ENCAMPMENTS

LOS ANGELES, CA  Following Governor Newsom’s Executive Order this morning directing state agencies to urgently address homeless encampments, Lindsey P. Horvath, Chair of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) Commission, shares:

Los Angeles County’s Pathway Home Program is doing exactly what this state order calls for – urgent and humane encampment resolution.

Los Angeles County is — and has been — all in on doing our part under our homelessness emergency.

I look forward to Tuesday’s Board discussion, which will also include Mayor Bass and Sheriff Luna, at our Board of Supervisors meeting about how Los Angeles County will continue to coordinate and scale a regional response that delivers lasting results.”
