5.0 Average Rating
Since 1997 we have owned the Villages at Cabrillo site located at 2001 River Avenue, Long Beach California. Villages at Cabrillo is an ingenious re-use of a former U.S. Naval housing site transferred by the Department of Defense under a Homeless Conveyance. This 26-acre facility is the largest, most comprehensive residential social service complex of its kind in the county, serving veterans and non-veteran homeless individuals, youth and families in need of housing and services. Currently the site is home to over 14 non-profits providing over 1000 individuals housing and supportive services. Services are coordinated through and array of non-profits each specializing in various segments of the homeless populations.

Great description- very informative! Is there a playground or place for children to play here? Or a plan in the works for one?
