Last month, the LACDA attended the grand opening of Lamp Lodge (Development) with Supervisor Hilda L. Solis, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, Secretary Lourdes M. Castro Ramirez, and other committed partners. Located in Downtown Los Angeles, this supportive housing Development offers 82 units to individuals and households who have faced the challenge of homelessness. The seven-story Development includes a public lobby, an open-air courtyard, a large community room, indoor bicycle parking, an edible garden, laundry facilities, and property and case management offices.
The LACDA provided $2 million in Affordable Housing Trust Funds (AHTF) and $3 million in Mental Health Housing Program (MHHP) Funds. The AHTF assists 15 units for people experiencing homelessness and the MHHP assists 19 units for people experiencing homelessness and living with a mental illness.
Supportive services are provided to all residents by The People Concern. They include intensive case management, substance abuse treatment, life skills training, end of life counseling, medication management services, transportation assistance, and other supportive services.
