As part of the City of Fremont’s strategic approach to addressing the growing homeless crisis, in September 2020, the City opened a Housing Navigation Center (HNC). Located adjacent to City Hall buildings, the HNC is an innovative approach to help those experiencing homelessness find housing while providing a clean, safe, and calm environment so participants can focus on finding stable, permanent housing.

The Housing Navigation Center is just one initiative aimed to alleviate homelessness in Fremont.

Residents stayed an average of six months, with 60% of the 258 who have exited the program moving into stable housing.
