These teams assist Orange County Cities with local homeless issues, including encampments. CHART will consist of staff from the OC Health Care Agency’s Behavioral Health and Public Health Services divisions, OC Community Resources/CityNet, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, OC Probation, OC Public Works and CalOptima. Upon request by and in partnership with a City office, the CHART team will determine the appropriate date(s) and location to assemble and provide adequate advance notice to homeless persons and, as possible, individuals. CHART will bring resources to the City, including clinical staff to conduct screenings/assessment for physical and mental health, substance use disorders, and housing needs. Those assessed to need services will be referred to the appropriate programs and transportation will be offered. Application for social service programs will be accepted onsite, and assistance will be provided to obtain proper identification cards. CHART will provide an opportunity to make the most impact through coordination of resources across multiple jurisdictions and connect to Regional Navigation Center.
