Beginning next year, the Southwest Valley will have more tools in its kit to help combat the rising wave of homelessness, especially among families.
The West Valley Housing Assistance Center, operated by Valley nonprofit A New Leaf, is expected to open by the end of April 2023, and will include on-site, temporary housing and act as a hub for people seeking services beyond shelter.
It’s a much-needed investment for the rising number of unhoused people in West Valley cities, who often need to travel all the way to central Phoenix to access services.
