Los Angeles CD13 (East Hollywood)

The East Hollywood interim supportive housing community will include 51 beds, intentionally designed to offer safety, dignity, and stability for transitional-age youth (TAY) and adults experiencing street homelessness. The site will be constructed using BOSS Cubez modular units, each approximately 64 square feet, providing residents with a private, secure space they can call their own.

The community will feature a communal dining area, community room, laundry facilities, on-site offices for staff and case managers, and outdoor gathering spaces designed to foster connection and healing. All elements are built with a trauma-informed approach, supporting residents’ sense of agency, privacy, and belonging. Located in East Hollywood, this project is designed to support encampment resolution efforts, offering a dignified pathway indoors and onward to permanent housing.

Hope the Mission will provide compassionate, on-site support designed to help transitional-age youth (TAY) and adults experiencing homelessness stabilize, heal, and move toward permanent housing.

As one of the largest and most trusted homeless-service providers in the Greater Los Angeles area, Hope the Mission operates dozens of programs, from family shelters and “tiny home” villages to job-readiness and housing-navigaton services.

The program will follow a trauma-informed, person-centered model that recognizes the complex factors contributing to homelessness including economic instability, behavioral health barriers, and systemic inequities. By integrating care, housing navigation, and economic opportunity, Hope the Mission will help residents build the stability and confidence to thrive beyond interim housing.

Transitional Age Youth (TAY) — young people ages 18 to 24 — are one of the fastest-growing groups experiencing homelessness in Los Angeles. Many are aging out of foster care or navigating unstable home environments without the safety nets they need to thrive.

Nearly half of foster youth experience homelessness or incarceration after aging out of care, and Los Angeles has seen close to a 20 percent increase in youth homelessness in recent years. Because TAY are less likely to access traditional shelter options, they are often left without safe, stable places to land.

The East Hollywood community will dedicate 10 beds on site specifically for TAY, creating a stable and supportive environment designed to help young people build a future.
