LSS of Northern California is part of the solution to ending homelessness in Redding, Shasta County, Siskiyou County and throughout Northern California.
In Redding and the North State, LSS provides housing and supportive services in three key areas:
1. Transition Age Youth (ages 18-25) who have emancipated from foster care require additional support to successfully navigate adulthood. Every year, more than 4,000 California youth emancipate from the foster care system when they turn 18; 44% have not finished high school; too many interact with the justice system; and 31% experience homelessness. These young people have faced trauma, abuse, violence, and neglect. LSS provides the critical services they need to build successful, independent lives.
2. Shasta College Students experiencing homelessness struggle daily to balance their studies with finding safe places to sleep, securing meals, and protecting themselves from the elements and potential harm. LSS partners with the college to provide housing and case management that allows students to focus on their education and future.
3. CalAIM: Case Management & Community Supports (housing) to MediCal patients in partnership with managed care providers in Shasta and Siskiyou Counties.
Throughout the region, LSS provides housing as the foundation for stable, successful lives. Agency-wide, LSS guides more than 4,500+ people every year in rebuilding their lives after experiencing homelessness and trauma.
Our approach works: 97% of those we serve maintain stable housing, even after completing our programs. This success reflects our commitment to addressing both immediate needs and long-term pathways to self-sufficiency.
