County launches regional homeless outreach program
“’We’ve been pushing for this for quite a while, so it’s a step in the right direction,’ Escondido Mayor Paul McNamara said. ‘We’ve started something that will help us work cooperatively with the county and with the other cities, and I think we’ve come to an agreement that homelessness is a regional issue.'”
McNamara added that the program will also work in collaboration with homeless outreach organizations like Interfaith Community Services, which is headquartered in Escondido.”
