Serving the unhoused in Mar Vista, while improving community health & safety
Supporting our community.
OUR MISSION: To provide leadership and resources to address the destructive consequences of homelessness in Mar Vista so that the community is protected, remains safe and our homeless people receive compassionate, effective services with access to permanent supportive housing.
No more freeway camping
HOUSINGMV’s goal is to provide better living conditions to the unhoused while keeping our community safe and heatlhy.
Empowering the Mar Vista community to join the cause
BI-MONTHLY COMMUNITY FORUMS for education, exploration, and discussion of local homeless-related issues and concerns. These forums feature presentations by professionals, elected officials, and leaders in the field of homeless services. The forums provide a safe space for dialogue, respectful expression of divergent views, and consensus-building about how our community can best deal with the dynamic challenges of homelessness.
MONTHLY NEWSLETTER informing the community about our work, how community members can become involved, and the resources available to them for dealing with homeless people they encounter.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS to contribute leadership skills, funding, survival supplies to help our outreach team serve homeless people, and hands-on work to remove and clean up abandoned encampments.
Support for the unhoused
Lives improve when we take action. Our approach extends beyond the streets, to help ensure the unhoused have the necessary support to become active and caring members of the community.
“With the support from the Mar Vista community, we hope to serve those struggling with homelessness while keeping our families safe.”
— Rich Hirschkoff, HousingMV President
