A Community of Friends will host a groundbreaking ceremony in Huntington Park on May 4.
Huntington Square is a new 48-unit affordable and supportive housing development for older adults, including veterans.
It will be located at 6101 State Street, Huntington Park, CA 90255.
ACOF was the first agency to successfully implement the permanent supportive housing model throughout LA County. They are one of only a handful of agencies that offer supportive and service-enriched affordable housing for homeless individuals and families living with mental illness in Los Angeles County.
Their focus is to build housing for people who have less than 30% of area median income (AMI) and have a mental, physical, or developmental disability with a primary focus on AMI. We work to provide people with special needs safe and affordable homes that allow them to focus on their mental and physical health.
ACOF currently houses over 2,700 individuals and families in their buildings:
- Approximately 99% of ACOF’s special needs tenants have a mental health, substance abuse, or a physical disability
- Of those tenants, over 95% have remained housed after one year with another 69% housed after three years.
