Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass on Tuesday jointly announced additional funding to combat homelessness.
The $827 million in state funding will better connect people experiencing homelessness to shelters and services, the officials said.
That money will go to 37 regional grantees that represent 100 local communities and organizations across the state, Newsom’s office said in a news release.
“The funding comes with strong accountability measures and reporting requirements to ensure funding is used effectively and outcomes can be tracked and measured,” the release added.

A even bigger boondoggle than the high speed rail fiasco.
Newsom is a greasy worm.
Accountability measures.
Article doesn’t say anything about what will be done with the money.
Yeah, but a lot of people getting rich with their hands in the cookie jar.
I predict that what little of it which does not get stolen, will only make the problem worse.
The scary thing is the rest of us (we non-Californians) will help pay for this.
I want to be one of those 37 grantees! 875 divided by 37 that’s too much for me to figure in my head. It’s more than 20 million for each entity.
Kiss that money goodbye California. You must spend this money otherwise all the NGOs will be added to the homeless population.
Indeed
Regional grantees

another lynchmobocratic laundromat
I am in CA. and NewSCUM has already thrown BILLIONS at the homeless situation YET it has become worse, HOWEVER his buddies have ALL purchased mansions right on the ocean!!
That’s a lot of hookers and blow for those NGO’s
and they’ll still be homeless
It will grow to $1 billion and CA taxes will go up again accordingly. And of course even more “homeless” will flock into the state and the amount will grow again larger.
But then the poor, poverty stricken buttwipes would have to *gasp* live in the desert....like millions of other people already do!
Proof that their is a LOT of money to be made in the homeless business.
Kalifornia is running huge deficits, wondering where the dough is coming from?
And the mansions are located where there are no homeless. Funny how that works. /s
Going to buy them needles?
