Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County (HIS-OC) assists unhoused people in transitioning to self-sufficiency. HIS-OC is different from an emergency shelter because the organization provides a longer-term guided process to achieve independence. The programs offered require a commitment on the part of the clients and provide tools so that a return to being unhoused is prevented. HIS-OC integrates job training, therapy, case management, and education into a continuum of care that addresses each client’s specific needs.There are currently four programs. The Transitional Housing Program is primarily for families experiencing homelessness and, in most cases, in need of reunification. The second program provides housing and education for young people ages 18-24. It’s called TAY (Transitional Aged Youth for adults ages 18-24). In our third program, Homeshare OC, we match homeless college students with senior homeowners. The pair shares housing in a mutually beneficial living arrangement. The fourth program is an outreach and referral program called Housing Connection. We collaborate with a network of community-based organizations to help the unhoused, hungry, and abused find services that meet their immediate needs.Last year HIS-OC helped over 1000 people with our programs and guided 85% of those in our resident programs to permanent housing. Since 1989, we have guided over 5000 people out of homelessness and back into productive lives.
