FRESNO, CA – Mayor Jerry Dyer says the City of Fresno has received a $10.4 million grant from the State of California to help the local homeless population.
The funds will be used to support more than 500 existing emergency shelter beds for adults ages 18 and over, including case management for each person to assist them with their path to exit homelessness.
Dyer, who joined KMJ’s Ray Appleton on Wednesday to discuss the issue, says they expect to receive half of the funding within the next few months and a second disbursement next year.
