The city of Goleta is partnering with Santa Barbara Alliance for Community Transformation (SB ACT) and Christ Lutheran Church to host a weekly Neighborhood Navigation Center (NNC) for people experiencing a lack of housing.
The NNC will provide a one-stop shop of services from various nonprofits, government agencies, and volunteer groups, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Mondays at Christ Lutheran Church, 6595 Covington Way, Goleta.
Services will include healthcare, behavioral wellness, and meals for people experiencing homelessness. The goal is to engage individuals in a context of safety and trust in order to motivate them to take steps toward housing.
The official launch of the program, at 11 a.m. Monday, Nov. 20, is open to the public for a short word of welcome and thank.
SB ACT is also currently soliciting volunteers to assist with lunch preparation and distribution.
