Homelessness
The City of Newport Beach, like all coastal cities in Southern California, has individuals who are currently experiencing homelessness due to a lack of affordable housing, employment, health and mental services, or have experienced life-changing events. The City has adopted a comprehensive approach to connecting these individuals with appropriate resources and housing.
