The Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles is set to acquire a 30-unit building in Koreatown for the express purpose of refurbishing it for homeless individuals and families.
HACLA announced Monday that they were able to secure a $9 million state grant to acquire the building, located at 630 N. Oxford Ave., under California’s Homekey+ initiative, which functions as a support for communities to expand their permanent supportive housing supply as well as services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
“Aligning state and local resources is a vital strategy that allows us to quickly convert available properties into permanent housing for the people of Los Angeles,” HACLA President and CEO Lourdes Castro Ramírez said in a statement.
