The Community Action Partnership (CAP) was established in 1964 during President
Johnson’s “War on Poverty.” CAP funding today is drawn down through Community
Services Block Grants. The CAP is designated by the County Board of Supervisors to
specifically provide a focal point to coordinate and plan for the provision of
community services that support, assist, and empower low-income people and to
improve their quality of life. The CAP engages in three major activities to achieve this
mission: contracting with nonprofit and public agencies for services, collaborating
with community stakeholders, and supporting educational community activities.

INTRODUCTION
In partnership with the Coalition of Homeless Service Providers, the
Community Action Partnership has compiled this guide to assist the
community in connecting to resources that serve the homeless and
at-risk populations in Monterey County.
This guide to homeless services in Monterey County is comprised of
public and non-profit resources. Although updated annually, the
guide is not exhaustive and every effort has been made to include
accurate and current information. It should be emphasized that
services in this community are frequently changing and the details
regarding specific services provided should always be confirmed
directly by the individual agency. The inclusions of services into this
guide do not imply recommendation or endorsement.
COORDINATED ASSESSMENT AND REFERRAL SYSTEM (CARS)
Coordinated entry is a consistent, community-wide process to
match people experiencing homelessness to community resources
that are the best fit for their situation. In a community using
coordinated entry, homeless individuals and families complete a
standard triage assessment survey that identifies the best type of
intervention for that household. Participating programs accept
referrals from the system, reducing
the need for people to travel distances
seeking assistance at every provider
separately.
