Hacienda Heights,\u00a0Calif.<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014\u00a0Los Angeles County Board Chair and First District Supervisor Hilda L. Solis today cut the ribbon on 7th Avenue Village, a permanent supportive housing development in unincorporated Hacienda Heights that will provide 142 studio apartments with on-site services for people transitioning out of homelessness.<\/p>\n

Located at 1156 S. 7th Ave., the development was created by converting a former Motel 6, acquired by Los Angeles County in 2020 through California\u2019s Homekey initiative, launched by Governor Gavin Newsom. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the site temporarily housed people experiencing homelessness, helping reduce virus transmission and relieve pressure on the health care system. The property closed in 2023 for renovation into permanent supportive housing.<\/p>\n

\u201cHomelessness is the most pressing crisis facing our region, and projects like 7th Avenue Village are how we meet that challenge\u00a0with viable solutions that invest in the wellbeing of our unhoused residents,\u201d said\u00a0Chair Solis.<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cI want to thank the community members and partners who stood by this project and understood its importance. Their support helped transform a long-challenged site into housing that not only provides stability and services for\u00a0residents, but\u00a0also improves quality of life for the broader Hacienda Heights\u00a0community.\u201d<\/p>\n

The fully furnished apartments feature laundry facilities, indoor community space, and three landscaped outdoor gathering areas with shaded seating. Additional amenities include a dog run, community garden, bicycle storage, and 24-hour security. Residents at 7th Avenue Village pay rent, making this housing both stable and sustainable. Los Angeles County committed $31.6 million in American Rescue Plan Act funding for the renovations.<\/p>\n

Residents will have access to supportive services such as substance use disorder treatment, health care, employment and education\u00a0assistance, and financial counseling. Up to 13 case managers will be on site to provide ongoing support. Los Angeles County has partnered with Women Organizing Resources,\u00a0Knowledge\u00a0and Services (WORKS) to manage the property and with Housing Works to provide supportive services.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to\u00a0Los Angeles County Board Chair and First District Supervisor Hilda L.\u00a0Solis for her leadership in making 7th Avenue Village a reality,\u201d said\u00a0Mary-Jane\u00a0Wagle,\u00a0Chief Executive Officer\u00a0of WORKS.\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cThis development provides residents not only a safe place to call home, but also the supportive services they need to build stability, independence, and hope. We are proud to manage the property and help ensure it\u00a0benefits\u00a0both the residents and the broader Hacienda Heights\u00a0community.\u201d<\/p>\n

Future residents will be referred through the County\u2019s established network of homeless services agencies and the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority\u2019s Coordinated Entry System. Outreach will also be conducted in Hacienda Heights and surrounding areas.<\/p>\n

Construction was completed in late 2025. The site is currently home to 33 residents and is expected to reach full occupancy by spring 2026. The Los Angeles County Development Authority has committed 142 housing vouchers to support the project.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
