Homeless outreach has been going on in Montecito since the latter half of 2020. We're partnering with City Net to create Hands Across Montecito, that provides connection to services, and consistent outreach to help people move indoors.
Our community has been engaged in homeless outreach, with a stalwart team of volunteers from Bonnymede, Montecito Shores, Sea Meadow and more.
When a community comes together to solve a problem by collaborating, volunteering, and supporting a project like this, it's a key ingredient for success.
Please join us in supporting Hands Across Montecito! You can donate at the link below. You're also welcome to reach out to us if you want more information, or if you want to learn how to get involved in the outreach project, and be a hand reaching across Montecito.
