Housing Programs
The Adult System of Care manages two types of housing programs: transitional and permanent supportive housing. Both of these programs are designed to provide housing and supportive services to Placer County residents who have a diagnosed mental illness and/or other co-morbid disabilities.
Transitional Housing Program
Placer County Adult System of Care in collaboration with Advocates for Mentally Ill Housing, Inc. (AMIH) manage and support four transitional houses geared towards providing housing and supportive services to Placer County adult residents with a diagnosed mental illness. These houses are located in Auburn, Rocklin, and Roseville and they each house up to six residents.
The Transitional Housing Program is a sober and living program where residents receive case management to link them to services in the community. Residents are expected to participate in daily chores and engage in independent as well as group activities that promote living skills and self-sufficiency. For additional information on program qualifications, program fees, and availability, please call 530-889-7263.
Programs
The Adult System of Care in Collaboration with Advocates for Mentally Ill Housing, Inc. (AMIH) oversees shared-housing Permanent Supportive Housing Programs: Timberline and Placer Street. They also oversee the Main Street Permanent Supportive Housing Program. In Addition the Adult System of Care managers two Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Grant Funded Permanent Supportive Housing Programs: Shelter Plus Care and Adult System of Care Permanent Supportive Housing (APSH).

Timberline is a 5 unit, single family home shared living housing program. Three out of the five units are vouchered units through the Shelter Plus Care Project Based HUD Program. Participants of Timberline have to be Placer County residents, have a diagnosed mental illness, be enrolled in the Full Service Partnership (FSP) Program, and have been homeless prior to entering the program. They also have to be on the Coordinated Entry By Name list in order to be referred to Timberline.
Placer Street
Placer Street is a shared living program in an apartment complex of 6 condominium style units. Each unit has 2 master bedrooms and a bath, along with a shared living space. One out of the six units is vouchered through the Shelter Plus Care Project Based HUD Program. Participants of Placer Street have to be Placer County residents, have a diagnosed mental illness, be enrolled in the Full Service Partnership (FSP) Program, and have been homeless prior to entering the program.

Main Street welcomes Housing vouchers such as Housing Choice Vouchers (Section 8), Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Vouchers (VASH), and HUD Permanent Supportive Housing Vouchers (APSH and Shelter Plus Care).
Federally Funded Programs
Adult System of Care manages two federally funded HUD permanent housing programs. The APSH and Shelter Plus Care Permanent Supportive Housing Programs are funded by HUD. Participants of these programs pay up to 30% of their income towards their rent; the funding from HUD pays the difference in rental subsidies. These permanent housing programs are designed to provide housing to the chronically homeless population who have HUD certifiable disabilities.
Placer County residents who are homeless can call the Homeless Helpline (PDF) at 1-833-375-2237. They will answer a few questions and be put on a waiting list for emergency and permanent supportive housing. Housing providers will contact them once there is bed availability in their programs. Please note that individuals still need to meet all requirements of the housing programs at the time of contact by the providers.
Homeless Resource Helpline
A group of community providers in Placer County who offer shelter and housing for homeless individuals and families have partnered together to launch a new service to help coordinate their resources. Homeless individuals/families are asked to call the Homeless Resource Helpline at 833-375-2237 for a referral to Emergency Housing and/or to provide their information to get on a centralized housing list.
As housing dedicated to homeless individuals and families becomes available, participating community partners will draw from this list to contact those who may be eligible. The phone call does not guarantee housing. They should continue to reach out to other resources in the community.
If at any time their contact information changes, they should call back to get it updated. Learn more on the Homeless Resource Council of the Sierras webpage. View information on Placer County’s 2018 homeless point-in-time count.
