Keep People Housed (KPH) was the first pilot program of its kind in the Bay Area and has become the regional model for identifying and targeting at-risk households, streamlined applications and data processing, and direct services.  

​

KPH uses a targeted prevention approach that blends financial support with wraparound services. We don’t just write checks—we offer time. That time becomes a lifeline while care coordinators work with clients on job access, mental health care, housing navigation, legal aid, and long-term stability planning.

​

Keep People Housed is a coordinated strategy and partnership to help Bay Area (currently focused on  City of Oakland, Contra Costa County, Solano County, and Sonoma County) residents at risk of losing their homes, providing a three-prong emergency response approach for residents: legal representation, financial assistance, and supportive services to help them remain in their homes.
