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.
