Justice Involved (JI)Darnell · Kern County, CA

From the gate to a clinic chair in 24 hours

A 42-year-old releasing from state prison after seven years arrived with a 30-day psychiatric medication supply, a same-day PCP visit, and a bed in transitional housing — instead of a bus ticket to nowhere.

0 days without meds

90-day pre-release + 12-month follow

Justice Involved (JI)Rosa · Fresno County, CA

Housed in the highest-risk window after release

Two weeks after release from county jail — the window when returning to homelessness sends most people back inside — Rosa had a recuperative care bed, a Lifeline phone, and a Community Health Worker who answered every call.

Housed by Day 5

60-day intensive post-release

Justice Involved (JI)Marcus (17) · Alameda County, CA

Diversion instead of detention

A 17-year-old facing a first felony charge was diverted into a coordinated treatment plan — trauma-focused therapy, school re-engagement, and family support — with charges dismissed at the 12-month review.

A dual-status youth, one coordinated team

A 15-year-old crossing juvenile probation and foster care had been in three placements in six months. One care team synchronized the social worker, probation officer, and school — and she stayed put.

Individuals and Families Experiencing HomelessnessJames · San Diego County, CA

From an encampment to a signed lease in 90 days

A 54-year-old living unsheltered for four years with schizophrenia and untreated hepatitis C moved from a riverbed encampment to a permanent supportive housing unit — with his medications, his cat, and his ID.

Housed on Day 89

90-day field engagement

Individuals and Families Experiencing HomelessnessAnonymous · Los Angeles County, CA

Recuperative care after a psychiatric hold

Instead of a curbside discharge from a 5150 hold, an unsheltered woman with bipolar disorder went straight to a recuperative care bed and, from there, into interim housing with continuous behavioral health care.

120 days of stepped care

Birth Equity (Pregnant & Postpartum SMI/SUD)Tanisha · Contra Costa County, CA

Preeclampsia caught early — mother and baby home together

A 29-year-old Black birthing person with a prior severe preeclampsia history was screened, monitored, and hospitalized at the right moment — delivering a healthy baby at 37 weeks with no ICU stay.

0 ICU days

Prenatal to 12 months postpartum

Birth Equity (Pregnant & Postpartum SMI/SUD)Angela · San Joaquin County, CA

Postpartum depression caught at the 6-week visit

A first-time mother screened positive at week 6, was in perinatal-specialized therapy by week 7, and was in remission by week 20 — the arc that keeps postpartum depression from becoming a postpartum crisis.

Eleven ED visits down to zero

A 67-year-old with CHF and diabetes had 11 emergency department visits in one year. After transitional care, home monitoring, and a fixed 7-day post-discharge follow-up, the next 12 months produced zero.
