Los Angeles County Homeless Outreach Portal
A brand-new, county-wide online portal allows residents to easily submit requests for homeless outreach. The Los Angeles County Homeless Outreach Portal (LA-HOP) makes it easier and more efficient for the public to request help and have it dispatched to connect homeless persons with outreach workers. Please read the entire site before submitting a request. If you come across a family with minor children experiencing homelessness, have them call 211 and ask to be connected to the Coordinated Entry System for Families. If you are concerned about illegal activity, contact your local law enforcement agency. For medical and mental health emergencies, call 911. Visit http://www.la-hop.org to learn more.
