Victorville will try again to fund what would be the largest homeless shelter in the High Desert
“The Victorville City Council has voted to authorize applying for a $35 million state grant that officials say would fund construction of what would be the largest homeless shelter in the High Desert.
The Wellness Center Campus — proposed to be constructed near Eva Dell Park — would offer beds for 170 people who are either homeless or close to it, as well as provide support services, such as a medical clinic and job placement.
Victorville has had the second-highest homeless population in San Bernardino County for three straight years as of 2020, trailing only San Bernardino city in annual Point-In- Time counts.”
