Anaheim Blvd th 7 floor Anaheim, CA 92805 Re: Covenant House Dear City Council Members, We are writing to express our strong support for the approval of the Covenant House project. The Collaboration exists to bring together resources, education, prevention, and services to address addiction in the community. This includes homelessness. Covenant house has served countless homeless individuals over the 40 years they have been in business. Currently they are serving 74,000 people per year. The population Covenant House serves is desperately needed in Orange County as the number of youths being trafficked, aging out of foster care, or becoming homeless for other reasons is increasing rapidly. The continuum of care provided by this program is amazing and extremely successful. In closing, we ask that you unanimously vote yes on the item and approve bringing Covenant House into the City of Anaheim.
