About Us

Our Story

Expanding Impact Across California 

 

Founded as Housing for Health Orange County (HHOC), we built and refined a proven model for coordinated housing service delivery, developing the infrastructure, partnerships, and program quality that make lasting impact possible. We built a robust model of support that included:

Housing Navigation

Housing Deposits

Housing Sustainability & Tenancy

Day Habilitation

Enhanced Care Management

Short-term Post-Hospitalization

Through our partnerships and collaboration with local service providers, we made meaningful strides in supporting Orange County’s unhoused population.

In 2025, we took the next step in our evolution, expanding statewide as Housing for Health California (HHCA) to bring our program management model to providers across California.

Day Habilitation

This expansion reflects our commitment to building a statewide network where every provider has the infrastructure, compliance support, and operational backbone to deliver exceptional care. 

Our story is one of growth, evolution, and an unwavering belief that strong organizations build stronger communities.
