• In July 2023, Shoreline launched the Community Care Crew (CCC), Business Code 624310, to provide meaningful transitional employment opportunities to individuals experiencing homelessness. The program helps them build job skills, gain work experience, and move forward towards stable housing. Crew Members do street cleaning, power washing and janitorial work in the Central Beach Area under the guidance of dedicated Crew Coordinators. Participants receive one-on-one support from a dedicated Case Manager, focusing on skill development, goal setting, and career counseling, in partnership with the San Diego Workforce Partnership. The program follows a tiered structure, allowing Crew Members to progress, unlock new opportunities and access key benefits, like temporary housing, upon reaching their milestones. The CCC operates as a Social Enterprise, engaging local businesses, neighborhood organizations, and faith communities as customers, reinforcing our model of community-driven impact. Since its inception, Crew Members have worked more than 5,000 hours and three Crew Members have graduated. They produced $129K of outside revenues via 10 business contracts. In 2024, we received generous grants from the County of San Diego Building Partnerships, the San Diego County Neighborhood Reinvestment Program and the Lucky Duck Foundation and strong community partnerships with Christ Lutheran Church and HomeAid. Once we have worked through the permit process with the City of San Diego and the Coastal Commission, our first CCC residents will move into a Workforce Housing Community of micro sleeping cabins alongside the Compass Station. Crew Members will take care of their own spaces, managing their own time and money, paying rent and working.
