Purpose and Mission:

The purpose of the CV Collaborative is to provide a central resource for organizations providing a service(s) to Coachella Valley’s unhoused residents, sheltered and unsheltered, to:

1. Increase awareness of the variety and breadth of services provided among organizations/institutions providing services;
2. Provide an opportunity for organizations to share information on their programs with peers;
3. Create a register of organizations providing services;
4. Create opportunities for collaboration; and
5. Provide opportunities for community education and awareness of the needs of unhoused individuals across the community.

Membership in the collaborative is open to any organization, health or educational institution that provides a service to unhoused individuals. It is not intended as a source for fundraising for the individual organization/institution or to promote programs/services that do not have a direct benefit for unhoused persons, whether sheltered or unsheltered. There is no fee associated with membership.
