The facility, operated by Episcopal Community Services, will be able to serve up to 22 unsheltered residents living with mental illness and/or chronic substance use conditions.
Pictured here is the entrance to the facility on Dec. 15, 2022. The safe haven, on the campus of Veterans Village San Diego at 4141 Pacific Highway, will increase the overall capacity of the C-HRT program and the supportive housing component is intended to assist with the transition from homeless and/or shelter to permanent housing.
Under the partnership, the city will cover the costs to use the facility and the county will cover operating costs. "ECS is committed to providing a warm and welcoming environment for our clients as they receive the care and support they need to recover and achieve independence," said Elizabeth Fitzsimons, CEO of Episcopal Community Services."Our team of multidisciplinary experts deliver evidence-based care with compassion and empathy, drawing on lived and professional experience.A photo of a unit inside the new 'Safe Haven' facility on Dec. 15, 2022.
“It's really meant to be like a home to these people. And it is smaller because they're going to be spending more time here together. And we don't have a time limit on how long they can be with us; some of our clients stay with us as long as two years," Fitzsimons said.
